WARNING: modpost: Found 2 section mismatch(es).
To see full details build your kernel with:
'make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y'
FATAL: modpost: Section mismatches detected.
Set CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH_WARN_ONLY=y to allow them.
scripts/Makefile.modpost:97: recipe for target 'vmlinux.o' failed

for v4.4.y, v4.9.y, and v4.14.y.

Bisecting in v4.4.y points to commit 13e9ce202ddcf95bf6 ("mm, meminit:
recalculate pcpu batch and high limits after init completes"). Reverting
it fixes the problem in all three branches.
