This should fix it:
--- a/arch/x86/mm/pat.c~arch-x86-mm-patc-nopat-should-be-__init +++ a/arch/x86/mm/pat.c @@ -34,7 +34,7 @@ void __cpuinit pat_disable(char *reason) printk(KERN_INFO "%s\n", reason); } -static int nopat(char *str) +static int __init nopat(char *str) { pat_disable("PAT support disabled."); return 0; _
It turns out that this was harmless. However it might not have been - I think that adding the ability to suppress all these warnings was a mistake.
