Subject: [PATCH] arm64: mm: mark create_mapping as __init
Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2015 10:31:06 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1438075866-15483-1-git-send-email-mark.rutland@arm.com> (raw)
Currently create_mapping is marked with __ref, apparently because it
refers to early_alloc. However, create_mapping has no logic to prevent
erroneous use of early_alloc after it has been freed, and is only ever
called by __init functions anyway. Thus the __ref marker is misleading
and unnecessary.
Instead, this patch marks create_mapping as __init, resulting in
warnings if it is used from a a non __init functions, and allowing its
memory to be reclaimed.
