It comes from this code (mm/slab.c):
/*
* For setting up all the kmem_list3s for cache whose buffer_size is same as
* size of kmem_list3.
*/
static void __init set_up_list3s(struct kmem_cache *cachep, int index)
{
int node;
for_each_online_node(node) {
cachep->nodelists[node] = &initkmem_list3[index + node];
cachep->nodelists[node]->next_reap = jiffies +
REAPTIMEOUT_LIST3 +
((unsigned long)cachep) % REAPTIMEOUT_LIST3;
}
}
It is supposed to be used only during early init and thus marked __init.
And initkmem_list3 is marked __initdata so that matches.
But set_up_list3s() is used outside __init marked functions and thus result in
an error.
I do not know how to fix this.
