From: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheu...@linaro.org> The routine ptp_classifier_init() uses an initializer for an automatic struct type variable which refers to an __initdata symbol. This is perfectly legal, but may trigger a section mismatch warning when running the compiler in -fpic mode, due to the fact that the initializer may be emitted into an anonymous .data section thats lack the __init annotation. So work around it by using assignments instead.
