From: Jackie Liu <liuyun01@kylinos.cn> stable inclusion from stable-5.10.75 commit 057ee6843bbbe9e7114b6b35b6beab655288df24 bugzilla: 182987 https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4I3MP Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- commit 596143e3aec35c93508d6b7a05ddc999ee209b61 upstream. Fix modpost Section mismatch error in next_platform_timer(). [...] WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x26e60): Section mismatch in reference from the function next_platform_timer() to the variable .init.data:acpi_gtdt_desc The function next_platform_timer() references the variable __initdata acpi_gtdt_desc. This is often because next_platform_timer lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of acpi_gtdt_desc is wrong. WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x26e64): Section mismatch in reference from the function next_platform_timer() to the variable .init.data:acpi_gtdt_desc The function next_platform_timer() references the variable __initdata acpi_gtdt_desc.
