Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Remove __dev* sections from the kernel
Date: Thu, 29 Nov 2012 10:41:33 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20121129184133.GA15110@kroah.com> (raw)
With the recent work to remove CONFIG_HOTPLUG, we are starting to get a
bunch of __devinit section warnings, despite CONFIG_HOTPLUG always being
enabled. So lets remove these false warnings by removing the check for
them in the modpost.c tool. Also, lets stop marking the sections
entirely, so define away the section markings in init.h
I'll queue these two patches up through my driver-core git tree, which
has the bulk of the __dev* marking removal patches in it. If anyone has
any objections to this, please let me know.
thanks,
greg k-h
