Subject: [PATCH 24/33] Whitelist references from __dbe_table to .init
Date: Tue, 17 Jul 2007 16:08:53 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <11846813441741-git-send-email-sam@ravnborg.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <118468134441-git-send-email-sam@ravnborg.org>

From: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org>

This is needed on MIPS where the same mechanism as get_user() is used to
intercept bus error exceptions for some hardware probes.  Without this
patch modpost will throw spurious warnings:

  LD      vmlinux
  SYSMAP  System.map
  SYSMAP  .tmp_System.map
  MODPOST vmlinux
WARNING: arch/mips/sgi-ip22/built-in.o(__dbe_table+0x0): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:
