[Xen-devel] [PATCH] xen: fix section mismatch in reference from the function xen_hvm_init_shared_info()



From: Stefan Assmann <sassmann@xxxxxxxxxx>

The following warning shows up when building the kernel with
make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y.

WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.text+0x475): Section mismatch in reference from 
the function xen_hvm_init_shared_info() to the function .init.text:extend_brk()
The function xen_hvm_init_shared_info() references
the function __init extend_brk().
This is often because xen_hvm_init_shared_info lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of extend_brk is wrong.

The problem is that xen_hvm_init_shared_info() calls extend_brk() which is
an __init function. However xen_hvm_init_shared_info() cannot be an
__init function as it's called on system resume as well. Easy fix by
moving extend_brk() out of the function.
