>> WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x12ced2d): Section mismatch in reference from the function smc_sysctl_exit() to the variable .init.data:smc_sysctl_ops
The function smc_sysctl_exit() references
the variable __initdata smc_sysctl_ops.
This is often because smc_sysctl_exit lacks a __initdata
annotation or the annotation of smc_sysctl_ops is wrong.
