[PATCH] cpufreq: fix section mismatch warnings
cpufreq are the only remaining bit to be solved for me to have a modpost clean build for sparc64 - so I took one more look at it. changelog entry: Fix section mismatch warnings in cpufreq: WARNING: drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_stats.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .data between 'cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier' (at offset 0xa8) and 'notifier_policy_block' WARNING: drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_stats.o - Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: from .exit.text after 'cleanup_module' (at offset 0x30) The culprint is the function: cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback It is marked __cpuinit which get's redefined to __init in case HOTPLUG_CPU is not enabled as per. init.h: #ifdef CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU #define __cpuinit #else #define __cpuinit __init #endif $> grep HOTPLUG .config CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y But cpufreq_stat_cpu_callback() is used in: __exit cpufreq_stats_exit() static struct notifier_block cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier is again used in: __init cpufreq_stats_init() __exit cpufreq_stats_exit() So in both cases used from both __init and __exit context. Only solution seems to drop __cpuinit tag. Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Signed-off-by: Dave Jones <davej@redhat.com>
