start_kernel(): bug: interrupts were enabled early

On latest git, I'm seeing "start_kernel(): bug: interrupts were enabled
early" messages on ARM (sample log below).

This appears to be caused by:

start_kernel -> radix_tree_init -> kmem_cache_create (slub) ->
down_write -> __down_write (lib/rwsem-spinlock.c) -> spin_unlock_irq

radix_tree_init was moved earlier by:

init: Move radix_tree_init() early

Prepare for using radix trees in early_irq_init().
