In some configurations when building with gcc-11, prepare_page_table does not get inline, which causes a build time warning for a section mismatch: WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0xce8): Section mismatch in reference from the function prepare_page_table() to the (unknown reference) .init.data:(unknown) The function prepare_page_table() references the (unknown reference) __initdata (unknown). This is often because prepare_page_table lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of (unknown) is wrong. Mark the function as __init to avoid the warning regardless of the inlining, and remove the 'inline' keyword. The compiler is free to ignore the 'inline' here and it doesn't result in better object code or more readable source.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
