Looking at the patch, it builds tables that can refer to .init.text but
then it excludes table entries that do not fall between _text and
_etext. Which makes the reference from .smp_locks to .init.text a
false positive. Gerd, is that the way that smp_alternatives is meant
to work? If so, I will update reference_*.pl.
+ alternatives_smp_module_add(NULL, "core kernel",
+ __smp_locks, __smp_locks_end,
+ _text, _etext);
