Subject: [PATCH 0/5] x86: __ref / __refdata cleanup

This series drops quite a few -- relatively speaking -- __ref /
__refdata annotations in the x86 code. They used to be needed in
__cpuinit times but those are long gone. Now those annotations may
only serve as an additional error source, hiding legitimate section
mismatches. So we better get rid of them.

Please apply.


Mathias Krause (5):
  x86, ACPI: Get rid of the acpi_map_cpu() wrapper
  x86, apic: Drop bogus __refdata annotation of cpu notifier
  x86, cpuid: Drop bogus __refdata annotation of cpu notifier
  x86, smpboot: Drop bogus __ref annotation from remove_cpu_from_maps()
  x86, topology: Drop bogus __ref annotations
