When compiling a kernel, I get the warnings below.=20
I am using ARCH=3Dpowerpc and 'make mpc8641_hpcn_defconfig', 'make
uImage'. This didn't appear in 2.6.22, but in
arch/powerpc/kernel/head_32.S and setup_32.c, the section info
apparently didn't change.=20

Kumar Galak has a patch series that clean these warnings up for ppc32.

Er, that would be Kumar Gala.  There I go, defaulting to IRC nicks
again.
