Re: [RFC PATCH 2/8] mm: Initialize node memory regions during boot

Hi Srivatsa,

I got following compile waring:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x10b320): Section mismatch in reference from the function init_zone_memory_regions() to the function .meminit.text:__absent_pages_in_range()
The function init_zone_memory_regions() references
the function __meminit __absent_pages_in_range().
This is often because init_zone_memory_regions lacks a __meminit
annotation or the annotation of __absent_pages_in_range is wrong.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x10b457): Section mismatch in reference from the function init_node_memory_regions() to the function .meminit.text:__absent_pages_in_range()
The function init_node_memory_regions() references
the function __meminit __absent_pages_in_range().
This is often because init_node_memory_regions lacks a __meminit
annotation or the annotation of __absent_pages_in_range is wrong.

I think should add *__paginginit* to the following three functions:
init_memory_regions()
init_node_memory_regions()
init_zone_memory_regions()

Thanks,
Jianguo wu
