Re: [PATCH] mm: mminit_loglevel cannot be __meminitdata anymore

On (15/08/08 23:02), Marcin Slusarz didst pronounce:
> mminit_loglevel is now used from mminit_verify_zonelist <- build_all_zonelists <-
> 
> 1. online_pages <- memory_block_action <- memory_block_change_state <- store_mem_state (sys handler)
> 2. numa_zonelist_order_handler (proc handler)
> 
> so it cannot be annotated __meminit - drop it
> 
> fixes following section mismatch warning:
> WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x71628): Section mismatch in reference from the function mminit_verify_zonelist() to the variable .meminit.data:mminit_loglevel
> The function mminit_verify_zonelist() references
> the variable __meminitdata mminit_loglevel.
> This is often because mminit_verify_zonelist lacks a __meminitdata
> annotation or the annotation of mminit_loglevel is wrong.
