Results from Linaro's test farm.
The following new warnings have been found while building ixp4xx_defconfig for Arm combinations with GCC:

   WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(___ksymtab_gpl+ixp4xx_irq_init+0x0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable __ksymtab_ixp4xx_irq_init to the function .init.text:ixp4xx_irq_init()
   The symbol ixp4xx_irq_init is exported and annotated __init
   Fix this by removing the __init annotation of ixp4xx_irq_init or drop the export.

   WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(___ksymtab_gpl+ixp4xx_timer_setup+0x0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable __ksymtab_ixp4xx_timer_setup to the function .init.text:ixp4xx_timer_setup()
   The symbol ixp4xx_timer_setup is exported and annotated __init
   Fix this by removing the __init annotation of ixp4xx_timer_setup or drop the export.
