After a recent LLVM change [1] that deduces __cold on functions that
only call cold code (such as __init functions), there is a section
mismatch warning from __get_mem_config_intel(), which got moved to
.text.unlikely. as a result of that optimization:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux: section mismatch in reference: __get_mem_config_intel+0x77 (section: .text.unlikely.) -> thread_throttle_mode_init (section: .init.text)
Mark __get_mem_config_intel() as __init as well since it is only called
from __init code, which clears up the warning.
While __rdt_get_mem_config_amd() does not exhibit a warning because it
does not call any __init code, it is a similar function that is only
called from __init code like __get_mem_config_intel(), so mark it __init
as well to keep the code symmetrical.

Changes in v3:
- Adjust subject to add () before get_mem_config to highlight it as part
of a function (Reinette).
- Carry forward Reinette's Reviewed-by.
- Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240913-x86-restctrl-get_mem_config_intel-init-v2-1-bf4b645f0246@kernel.org
Changes in v2:
- Move position of __init within definition of __get_mem_config_intel()
to better match coding style guidelines (Reinette).
- Apply __init to __rdt_get_mem_config_amd(), as it has the same issue
by inspection (Reinette). Adjust commit message to reflect this
change.

Yes, I think it would be reasonable to have Fixes and a Cc: stable since this can turn fatal with CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH_WARN_ONLY=n (even if there should be no real issue at run time because these functions are only called from __init code). I'll send a v4 upon request from whoever will apply this. Otherwise, here is a copy and pasteable block: Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Fixes: 05b93417ce5b ("x86/intel_rdt/mba: Add primary support for Memory Bandwidth Allocation (MBA)") Fixes: 4d05bf71f157 ("x86/resctrl: Introduce AMD QOS feature") Cheers, Nathan
