Subject: linux-next: build failure after merge of the mm tree

Hi all,

After merging the mm tree, today's linux-next build (powerpc
ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

ld: cannot find MEM_KEEP: No such file or directory

Caused by commit

  78e70fd784bd ("init/modpost: conditionally check section mismatch to __meminit*")

from the mm-nonmm-unstable branch of the mm tree.

grep is your friend :-)

I have applied the following fix patch for today.

From: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@...b.auug.org.au>
Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2024 09:28:02 +1000
Subject: [PATCH] fixup for "init/modpost: conditionally check section mismatch to __meminit*"
