Subject: [PATCH v2 1/3] alpha: use .data.init_task instead of .data.init_thread.
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2009 12:38:37 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1253119119-18956-2-git-send-email-tabbott@ksplice.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1253119119-18956-1-git-send-email-tabbott@ksplice.com>
alpha is the only architecture that uses the section name
.data.init_thread instead of .data.init_task. So convert alpha to use
.data.init_task like everything else.
.data.init_task does not need a separate output section; this change
also moves it into the .data output section.
