clocksource: hyper-v: unexport __init-annotated hv_init_clocksource()
[ Upstream commit 245b993d8f6c4e25f19191edfbd8080b645e12b1 ] EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up with kernel panic. modpost used to detect it, but it has been broken for a decade. Recently, I fixed modpost so it started to warn it again, then this showed up in linux-next builds. There are two ways to fix it: - Remove __init - Remove EXPORT_SYMBOL I chose the latter for this case because the only in-tree call-site, arch/x86/kernel/cpu/mshyperv.c is never compiled as modular. (CONFIG_HYPERVISOR_GUEST is boolean) Fixes: dd2cb348613b ("clocksource/drivers: Continue making Hyper-V clocksource ISA agnostic") Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell <sfr@canb.auug.org.au> Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Michael Kelley <mikelley@microsoft.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220606050238.4162200-1-masahiroy@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Wei Liu <wei.liu@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
