Hi Michal,

__initcall functions will be called in
start_kernel()
rest_init() // -> slab is already
kernel_init()
kernel_init_freeable()
do_basic_setup()
do_initcalls()

and setup_hugepagesz() will be called in
start_kernel()
parse_early_param() // -> before mm_init() -> kmem_cache_init()

Is this right?

Thanks
