Solve section mismatch for free_area_init_core.

[Alexander van Heukelum]

Solve section mismatch for free_area_init_core:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.meminit.text+0x649): 
Section mismatch in reference from the 
function free_area_init_core() to the function .init.text:setup_usemap()
The function __meminit free_area_init_core() references
a function __init setup_usemap().
If free_area_init_core is only used by setup_usemap then
annotate free_area_init_core with a matching annotation.

The warning is covers this stack of functions in mm/page_alloc.c:

alloc_bootmem_node must be marked __init.
alloc_bootmem_node is used by setup_usemap, if !SPARSEMEM.
(usemap_size is only used by setup_usemap, if !SPARSEMEM.)
setup_usemap is only used by free_area_init_core.
free_area_init_core is only used by free_area_init_node.

free_area_init_node is used by:
arch/alpha/mm/numa.c: __init paging_init()
arch/arm/mm/init.c: __init bootmem_init_node()
arch/avr32/mm/init.c: __init paging_init()
arch/cris/arch-v10/mm/init.c: __init paging_init()
arch/cris/arch-v32/mm/init.c: __init paging_init()
arch/m32r/mm/discontig.c: __init zone_sizes_init()
arch/m32r/mm/init.c: __init zone_sizes_init()
arch/m68k/mm/motorola.c: __init paging_init()
arch/m68k/mm/sun3mmu.c: __init paging_init()
arch/mips/sgi-ip27/ip27-memory.c: __init paging_init()
arch/parisc/mm/init.c: __init paging_init()
arch/sparc/mm/srmmu.c: __init srmmu_paging_init()
arch/sparc/mm/sun4c.c: __init sun4c_paging_init()
arch/sparc64/mm/init.c: __init paging_init()
mm/page_alloc.c: __init free_area_init_nodes()
mm/page_alloc.c: __init free_area_init()
and
mm/memory_hotplug.c: hotadd_new_pgdat()

hotadd_new_pgdat can not be an __init function, but:

It is compiled for MEMORY_HOTPLUG configurations only
MEMORY_HOTPLUG depends on SPARSEMEM || X86_64_ACPI_NUMA
X86_64_ACPI_NUMA depends on X86_64
ARCH_FLATMEM_ENABLE depends on X86_32
ARCH_DISCONTIGMEM_ENABLE depends on X86_32
So X86_64_ACPI_NUMA implies SPARSEMEM, right?

So we can mark the stack of functions __init for !SPARSEMEM,
but we must mark them __meminit for SPARSEMEM configurations.
This is ok, because then the calls to alloc_bootmem_node are
also avoided.

Compile-tested on:
silly minimal config
defconfig x86_32
defconfig x86_64
defconfig x86_64 -HIBERNATION +MEMORY_HOTPLUG

Comments?
