x86_init is used by many files and this breaks the kernel :

arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `init_IRQ':
(.text+0x4b12): undefined reference to `x86_init'
arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `trap_init':
(.init.text+0x385): undefined reference to `x86_init'
arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `x86_late_time_init':
time.c:(.init.text+0x39f): undefined reference to `x86_init'
arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `setup_arch':
(.init.text+0x80b): undefined reference to `x86_init'
arch/x86/built-in.o: In function `setup_arch':
(.init.text+0xa32): undefined reference to `x86_init'
arch/x86/built-in.o:(.init.text+0xc5e): more undefined references to `x86_init' follow

Now we need to look for some another option.

Thomas, any suggestions.

Thank you,
