Subject: [PATCH 06/11] powerpc: don't use module_init for non-modular core hugetlb code
Date: Sun, 31 May 2015 20:54:07 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1433120052-18281-7-git-send-email-paul.gortmaker@windriver.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1433120052-18281-1-git-send-email-paul.gortmaker@windriver.com>

The hugetlbpage.o is obj-y (always built in).  It will never
be modular, so using module_init as an alias for __initcall is
somewhat misleading.

Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future.  If we don't do this, we'd
have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that
would be a worse thing.

Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one
of the priority categorized subgroups.  As __initcall gets
mapped onto device_initcall, our use of arch_initcall (which
makes sense for arch code) will thus change this registration
from level 6-device to level 3-arch (i.e. slightly earlier).
However no observable impact of that small difference has
been observed during testing, or is expected.
