[PATCH 05/27] cpu: fix section mismatch warnings in hotcpu_register

From: Sam Ravnborg
Date: Sun Feb 17 2008 - 07:31:50 EST


Fix following warnings:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x5020): Section mismatch in reference from the variable cpu_vsyscall_notifier_nb.12876 to the function .cpuinit.text:cpu_vsyscall_notifier()
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x9ce0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable profile_cpu_callback_nb.17654 to the function .devinit.text:profile_cpu_callback()
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0xd380): Section mismatch in reference from the variable workqueue_cpu_callback_nb.15004 to the function .devinit.text:workqueue_cpu_callback()
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x11d00): Section mismatch in reference from the variable relay_hotcpu_callback_nb.19626 to the function .cpuinit.text:relay_hotcpu_callback()
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x12970): Section mismatch in reference from the variable cpu_callback_nb.24694 to the function .devinit.text:cpu_callback()
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x3fee0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable percpu_counter_hotcpu_callback_nb.10903 to the function .cpuinit.text:percpu_counter_hotcpu_callback()
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x74ce0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable topology_cpu_callback_nb.12506 to the function .cpuinit.text:topology_cpu_callback()

Functions used as argument are by definition only used
in HOTPLUG_CPU situations so thay are annotated __cpuinit.
Annotate the static variable used by hotcpu_register with
__cpuinitdata to match this definition.
