92cc6b0725 kbuild: remove hardcoded _logo names from modpost
Replaced this with a __init_refok marker
in front of fb_find_logo().

I think that the __initdata marker for the logo's are
wrong but I have not justified this so I did not remove it.

1087247b7d kbuild: refactor code in modpost to improve maintainability
There were a great deal of overlap between the two functions
that check which sections may reference .init.text and .exit.text.
Factor out common check to a separate function and
sort entries in the original functions.

b28242e7e3 kbuild: ignore section mismatch warnings originating from .note section
.note* sections are ELF notes, which are typically used by external
tools to examine the kernel image.  Since this is removed from any
runtime consideration, it's OK to reference any section from a .note*
section.

2648a53acf kbuild: fix sh64 section mismatch problems
There's a special .cranges section that is almost always generated,
with data being moved to the appropriate section by the linker at a later
stage.

To give a bit of background, sh64 has both a native SHmedia instruction
set (32-bit instructions) and SHcompact (which is compatability with
normal SH -- 16-bit, a massively reduced register set, etc.). code ranges
are emitted when we're using the 32-bit ABI, but not the 64-bit one.

It is a special staging section used solely by binutils where code with
different flags get placed (more specifically differing flags for input
and output sections), before being lazily merged by the linker.

The closest I've been able to find to documentation is:
  http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/ld/emultempl/sh64elf.em?rev=1.10&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=src

It's an array of 8-byte Elf32_CRange structure given in
  http://sources.redhat.com/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/bfd/elf32-sh64.h?rev=1.4&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup&cvsroot=src
that describes for which ISA a range is used.

Silence the warnings by allowing references from .init.text to .cranges.

The following warnings are fixed:

577a32f620 mm: fix section mismatch warnings
modpost had two cases hardcoded for mm/
Shift over to __init_refok and kill the
hardcoded function names in modpost.

This has the drawback that the functions
will always be kept no matter configuration.
With previous code the function were placed in
init section if configuration allowed it.

0e0d314e6a kbuild: introduce __init_refok/__initdata_refok to supress section mismatch warnings
Throughout the kernel there are a few legitimite references
to init or exit sections. Most of these are covered by the
patterns included in modpost but a few nees special attention.
To avoid hardcoding a lot of function names in modpost introduce
a marker so relevant function/data can be marked.
When modpost see a reference to a init/exit function from
a function/data marked no warning will be issued.

d1ab423502 powerpc: Fix the MODALIAS generation in modpost for of devices
Since the devices may have multiple (or none) compatible properties,
the uevent generated internally by the kernel may have multiple
"C..." entries. So the MODALIAS stored in the module must have
wilcard before and after the compatible entry.
Also, if the 'compatible' field is not used for matching, there
will be no 'C' and that must handled as well.

The previous code handled all those case incorrectly and it
"mostly" worked ... but not always.

72280ede31 Add white list into modpost.c for memory hotplug code and ia64's machvec section
This patch is add white list into modpost.c for some functions and
ia64's section to fix section mismatchs.

  sparse_index_alloc() and zone_wait_table_init() calls bootmem allocator
  at boot time, and kmalloc/vmalloc at hotplug time. If config
  memory hotplug is on, there are references of bootmem allocater(init text)
  from them (normal text). This is cause of section mismatch.

  Bootmem is called by many functions and it must be
  used only at boot time. I think __init of them should keep for
  section mismatch check. So, I would like to register sparse_index_alloc()
  and zone_wait_table_init() into white list.

  In addition, ia64's .machvec section is function table of some platform
  dependent code. It is mixture of .init.text and normal text. These
  reference of __init functions are valid too.

1394f03221 blackfin architecture
This adds support for the Analog Devices Blackfin processor architecture, and
currently supports the BF533, BF532, BF531, BF537, BF536, BF534, and BF561
(Dual Core) devices, with a variety of development platforms including those
avaliable from Analog Devices (BF533-EZKit, BF533-STAMP, BF537-STAMP,
BF561-EZKIT), and Bluetechnix!  Tinyboards.

The Blackfin architecture was jointly developed by Intel and Analog Devices
Inc.  (ADI) as the Micro Signal Architecture (MSA) core and introduced it in
December of 2000.  Since then ADI has put this core into its Blackfin
processor family of devices.  The Blackfin core has the advantages of a clean,
orthogonal,RISC-like microprocessor instruction set.  It combines a dual-MAC
(Multiply/Accumulate), state-of-the-art signal processing engine and
single-instruction, multiple-data (SIMD) multimedia capabilities into a single
instruction-set architecture.

The Blackfin architecture, including the instruction set, is described by the
ADSP-BF53x/BF56x Blackfin Processor Programming Reference
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/download/frsrelease/29/2549/Blackfin_PRM.pdf

The Blackfin processor is already supported by major releases of gcc, and
there are binary and source rpms/tarballs for many architectures at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/gf/project/toolchain/frs There is complete
documentation, including "getting started" guides available at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/ which provides links to the sources and
patches you will need in order to set up a cross-compiling environment for
bfin-linux-uclibc

This patch, as well as the other patches (toolchain, distribution,
uClibc) are actively supported by Analog Devices Inc, at:
http://blackfin.uclinux.org/

We have tested this on LTP, and our test plan (including pass/fails) can
be found at:
http://docs.blackfin.uclinux.org/doku.php?id=testing_the_linux_kernel
