first_lines_of_secondary() is a '__init' function, but it may be called by __cpu_up() by _cpu_up() by cpu_up() which is a normal export symbol function. So recommend to remove '__init'.
The related warning (with allmodconfig): MODPOST vmlinux.o WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x315c): Section mismatch in reference from the function __cpu_up() to the function .init.text:first_lines_of_secondary() The function __cpu_up() references the function __init first_lines_of_secondary(). This is often because __cpu_up lacks a __init annotation or the annotation of first_lines_of_secondary is wrong.
