Subject: Avoid section mismatch involving arch_register_cpu
Date: Fri, 1 Feb 2008 15:56:50 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080201145649.GA12318@mailshack.com> (raw)
Avoid section mismatch involving arch_register_cpu.
Marking arch_register_cpu as __init and removing the export
for non-hotplug-cpu configurations makes the following warning
go away:
Section mismatch in reference from the function
arch_register_cpu() to the function .devinit.text:register_cpu()
The function arch_register_cpu() references
the function __devinit register_cpu().
This is often because arch_register_cpu lacks a __devinit
annotation or the annotation of register_cpu is wrong.
The only external user of arch_register_cpu in the tree is
in drivers/acpi/processor_core.c where it is guarded by
ACPI_HOTPLUG_CPU (which depends on HOTPLUG_CPU).
