[PATCH v5 01/16] initrd: Add weakly-linked generic free_initrd_mem.

[Shea Levy]

This function is effectively identical across 14 architectures, and
the generic implementation is small enough to be negligible in the
architectures that do override it. Many of the remaining divergent
implementations can be included in the common code path in future,
further reducing code duplication and sharing improvements between
architectures.

v5: Add more complete commit messages.
v4: Use weak symbols instead of Kconfig.
v3: Make the generic path opt-out instead of opt-in.
v2: Mark generic free_initrd_mem __init.
