[PATCH] x86: Fix setion mismatch warning.

From: Rakib Mullick
Date: Fri Jan 23 2009 - 14:46:21 EST


Impact: Fix section mismatch warning.

Here function vmi_activate calls a init function activate_vmi , which
causes the following section mismatch warnings. This patch fixes it.

LD arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o
WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x13ba9): Section mismatch
in reference from the function vmi_activate() to the function
.init.text:vmi_time_init()
The function vmi_activate() references
the function __init vmi_time_init().
This is often because vmi_activate lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of vmi_time_init is wrong.

WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x13bd1): Section mismatch
in reference from the function vmi_activate() to the function
.devinit.text:vmi_time_bsp_init()
The function vmi_activate() references
the function __devinit vmi_time_bsp_init().
This is often because vmi_activate lacks a __devinit
annotation or the annotation of vmi_time_bsp_init is wrong.

WARNING: arch/x86/kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x13bdb): Section mismatch
in reference from the function vmi_activate() to the function
.devinit.text:vmi_time_ap_init()
The function vmi_activate() references
the function __devinit vmi_time_ap_init().
This is often because vmi_activate lacks a __devinit
annotation or the annotation of vmi_time_ap_init is wrong.


Thanks.
