Hello all,

I saw this while compiling 2.6.35:

...
  AR      arch/x86/lib/lib.a
  LD      vmlinux.o
  MODPOST vmlinux.o
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x2b769c): Section mismatch in reference from the
function pcibios_scan_specific_bus() to the function
.devinit.text:pci_scan_bus_on_node()
The function pcibios_scan_specific_bus() references
the function __devinit pci_scan_bus_on_node().
This is often because pcibios_scan_specific_bus lacks a __devinit
annotation or the annotation of pci_scan_bus_on_node is wrong.
...
  LD      arch/x86/pci/built-in.o
WARNING: arch/x86/pci/built-in.o(.text+0xdec): Section mismatch in reference
from the function pcibios_scan_specific_bus() to the function
.devinit.text:pci_scan_bus_on_node()
The function pcibios_scan_specific_bus() references
the function __devinit pci_scan_bus_on_node().
This is often because pcibios_scan_specific_bus lacks a __devinit
annotation or the annotation of pci_scan_bus_on_node is wrong.
...

Had no idea whether to report this, hence I did :) Please resolve if
unnecessary.

Kind regards
Sebastian
