>> WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x12806): Section mismatch in reference from the function idle_init() to the function .init.text:fork_idle()
The function idle_init() references
the function __init fork_idle().
This is often because idle_init lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of fork_idle is wrong.
