ARM: kernel: Fix section mismatches caused by commit bba0859a99
Commit bba0859a99 (arm: versatile: don't mark pen as __INIT) introduced the following section mismatch warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x18208): Section mismatch in reference from the variable pen to the function .cpuinit.text:secondary_startup() WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x18210): Section mismatch in reference from the variable pen to the variable .cpuinit.data:pen_release The first is handled by removing __cpuinitdata from pen_release. This also fixes and potential bug because the issue commit bba0859a99 was aimed at fixing meant a CPU not known to the kernel could be spinning forever in versatile_secondary_startup and polling this pen_release variable, so it is important its memory isn't discarded and reused after boot. The second section mismatch warning is removed by taking __CPUINIT away from before secondary_startup. Signed-off-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Alex Shi <alex.shi@linaro.org>
