| |
Fix following section mismatch warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x121e62): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__alloc_bootmem (between 'vgacon_startup' and 'vgacon_scrolldelta')
Browsing the code it seems that vgacon_scrollback_startup() is only called during the init phase so the reference to the .init.text section is OK. Teach modpost not to warn using ___init_refok.
