sparc32 modpost warnings from init()

[Martin Habets <errandir_news@mph.eclipse.co.uk>]

I am left with the warnings below in the sparc build of 2.6.19-rc2. They
all originate from init() (init/main.c). This function should definitely
remain in .text and it is fine it calls to .init.text functions.

The patch below against modpost makes it ignore this function, but I am
not sure:
- if this is the correct solution
- if this code should be sparc-specific
Any input on how to get rid of these warnings is welcome.
