Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fix lack of section mismatch warnings with LTO

Hi all,

Vincent recently reported an issue with lack of section mismatch
warnings with LTO. This is due to commit 6c730bfc894f ("modpost: handle
-ffunction-sections"), which ignores all function sections for modpost.

I believe this is incorrect, as these function sections may still refer
to symbols in other sections and they will ultimately be coalesced into
.text by vmlinux.lds anyways.

The first patch fixes a warning that I see with allmodconfig + ThinLTO
builds after applying the second patch. The second patch moves ".text.*"
into TEXT_SECTIONS so that modpost audits them for mismatches.

I expect this to go via the kbuild tree with an ack from the padata
maintainers.

  padata: Do not mark padata_mt_helper() as __init
  modpost: Include '.text.*' in TEXT_SECTIONS
