Subject: [S390] Poison init section before freeing it.
Date: Fri, 8 Dec 2006 16:22:01 +0100 [thread overview]

[S390] Poison init section before freeing it.
The data patterns should allow us to easily tell if somebody accesses
initdata/code after it was freed. Same code as on various other
architectures.
