commit 596143e3aec35c93508d6b7a05ddc999ee209b61 upstream.
Fix modpost Section mismatch error in next_platform_timer().
[...] WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x26e60): Section mismatch in reference from the function next_platform_timer() to the variable .init.data:acpi_gtdt_desc The function next_platform_timer() references the variable __initdata acpi_gtdt_desc. This is often because next_platform_timer lacks a __initdata annotation or the annotation of acpi_gtdt_desc is wrong.
