Hi Rakib,


Your two patches set for x86 init_thread_xsate function section mismatch 
is correct to fix the compilation warning, but generates this other one :

> WARNING: vmlinux.o(.cpuinit.text+0x7de): Section mismatch in reference 
> from the function xsave_cntxt_init() to the function 
> .init.text:__alloc_bootmem()
> The function __cpuinit xsave_cntxt_init() references
> a function __init __alloc_bootmem().
> If __alloc_bootmem is only used by xsave_cntxt_init then
> annotate __alloc_bootmem with a matching annotation.
Thanks for your good job.

Regards.
