[PATCH] xtensa: annotate dtb_start variable as static __initdata

From: Masahiro Yamada
Date: Tue Sep 17 2024 - 23:15:50 EST


The 'dtb_start' variable is only used within arch/xtensa/kernel/setup.c.
Mark it as 'static'.

It is only used by parse_tag_fdt() and init_arch(), both of which are
annotated as __init. Therefore, dtb_start can be annotated as __initdata,
so it will discarded after boot.
