Henrik Kretzschmar	975d260355	padata: Section cleanup ... This patch removes the __cupinit from padata_cpu_callback(), which is refered by the exportet function padata_alloc(). This could lead to problems if CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU is disabled, which should happen very often. WARNING: kernel/built-in.o(.text+0x7ffcb): Section mismatch in reference from the function padata_alloc() to the function .cpuinit.text:padata_cpu_callback() The function padata_alloc() references the function __cpuinit padata_cpu_callback(). This is often because padata_alloc lacks a __cpuinit annotation or the annotation of padata_cpu_callback is wrong.

Steffen Klassert	7478138782	padata: Allocate the cpumask for the padata instance ... The cpumask of the padata instance was used without allocated. This caused boot crashes if CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK is enabled. This patch fixes this by doing proper allocation for this cpumask.
