Fix the following warnings: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0xfe6711): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpufreq_unregister_driver() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpufreq_cpu_notifier WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0xfe68af): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpufreq_register_driver() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpufreq_cpu_notifier WARNING: vmlinux.o(.exit.text+0xc4fa): Section mismatch in reference from the function cpufreq_stats_exit() to the variable .cpuinit.data:cpufreq_stat_cpu_notifier
The warnings were casued by references to unregister_hotcpu_notifier() from normal functions or exit functions. This is flagged by modpost as a potential error because it does not know that for the non HOTPLUG_CPU scenario the unregister_hotcpu_notifier() is a nop. Silence the warning by replacing the __initdata annotation with a __refdata annotation.
