Subject: console: fix section mismatch warning in vgacon.c
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.23-rc1~181

console: fix section mismatch warning in vgacon.c

Fix following section mismatch warning:
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x121e62): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:__alloc_bootmem (between 'vgacon_startup' and 'vgacon_scrolldelta')

Browsing the code it seems that vgacon_scrollback_startup() is only called
during the init phase so the reference to the .init.text section is OK.

Teach modpost not to warn using ___init_refok.
