WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x58a1d): Section mismatch in reference from the function get_secrets_page() to the function .init.text:early_memremap()
The function get_secrets_page() references
the function __init early_memremap().
This is often because get_secrets_page lacks a __init 
annotation or the annotation of early_memremap is wrong.

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x58a3e): Section mismatch in reference from the function get_secrets_page() to the function .init.text:early_memunmap()
The function get_secrets_page() references
the function __init early_memunmap().
This is often because get_secrets_page lacks a __init 
annotation or the annotation of early_memunmap is wrong.

The previous caller was __init.

Seeing how the call chain starts at setup_real_mode() which is
__init, I'm thinking all those functions down to and including
get_secrets_page() should be __init too. And I'm guessing that should be
a pre-patch and then this one ontop.

Thx.
