Fix the following warning:

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x17b2c): Section mismatch
in reference from the function bcm2836_arm_irqchip_smp_init() to the
function .init.text:set_smp_ipi_range()
The function bcm2836_arm_irqchip_smp_init() references
the function __init set_smp_ipi_range().
This is often because bcm2836_arm_irqchip_smp_init lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of set_smp_ipi_range is wrong.

I already have a fix for this one[1], which should be in -next.

Thanks,
