4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ [ Upstream commit 51367e423c6501a26e67d91a655d2bc892303462 ] The get_mac_address() function is normally inline, but when it is not, we get a warning that this configuration is broken: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x4aff00): Section mismatch in reference from the function w90p910_ether_setup() to the function .init.text:get_mac_address() The function w90p910_ether_setup() references the function __init get_mac_address(). This is often because w90p910_ether_setup lacks a __init Remove the __init to make it always do the right thing. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
