Hi David et al.
After applying the patches I just sent to you
and a third for hpt366 (sent to Bart) my sparc64
build is section mismatch clean.
I have not tried different configs neither
allyesconfig etc.
Most of the remaining patches are queued by akpm
and I hope they hit mainlin before next me
.init.text:__alloc_bootmem()
alloc_bootmem() is only used during early init and for any subsequent
call to kernel_map_range() the program logic avoid the call.
So annotate kernel_map_range() with __ref to tell modpost to
ignore the reference to a __init function.

a() is used only during early init and for cpu
hotplug. So annotating them all __cpuinit solves the
section mismatch and should be correct.

Unfortunately modpost did not catch this since modpost do not warn about
references from .data to .devexit from variables named *_driver.

The pci_* were all missing __init annotations.
For the vio.c case it was a function with a wrong annotation which was removed.

Hi David.
As per discussion in other mail I have looked into the section
mismatch warnings coming from trampoline.S
If the section is changed to .init.text it gives the following warnings:

David asked me to mark them "Signed-off-by" but
my understanding are that Signed-off-by: document the path of a patch
so they are marked "Acked-by:".
Here is shortlog + diffstat.

sparc64 had hardcoded pagesize to 8192 for alignment.
But optimal alignment is PAGE_SIZE so replace harcoded values
with the PAGE_SIZE constant.
Note: PAGE_SIZE differ with configuration so this is a change
in functionality - see page.h
