Sam Ravnborg 312b1485fb Introduce new section reference annotations tags: __ref, __refdata, __refconst
Today we have the following annotations for functions/data
referencing __init/__exit functions / data:

__init_refok     => for init functions
__initdata_refok => for init data
__exit_refok     => for exit functions

There is really no difference between the __init and __exit
versions and simplify it and to introduce a shorter annotation
the following new annotations are introduced:

__ref      => for functions (code) that
              references __*init / __*exit
__refdata  => for variables
__refconst => for const variables

Whit this annotation is it more obvious what the annotation
is for and there is no longer the arbitary division
between __init and __exit code.

The mechanishm is the same as before - a special section
is created which is made part of the usual sections
in the linker script.

We will start to see annotations like this:

-static struct pci_serial_quirk pci_serial_quirks[] = {
+static const struct pci_serial_quirk pci_serial_quirks[] __refconst = {
-----------------
-static struct notifier_block __cpuinitdata cpuid_class_cpu_notifier =
+static struct notifier_block cpuid_class_cpu_notifier __refdata =
----------------
-static int threshold_cpu_callback(struct notifier_block *nfb,
+static int __ref threshold_cpu_callback(struct notifier_block *nfb,

[The above is just random samples].

Note: No modifications were needed in modpost
to support the new sections due to the newly introduced
blacklisting.

/* These macros are used to mark some functions or
* initialized data (doesn't apply to uninitialized data)
* as `initialization' functions. The kernel can take this
* as hint that the function is used only during the initialization
* phase and free up used memory resources after
*
* Usage:
* For functions:
*
* You should add __init immediately before the function name, like:
*
* static void __init initme(int x, int y)
* {
* extern int z; z = x * y;
* }
*
* If the function has a prototype somewhere, you can also add
* __init between closing brace of the prototype and semicolon:
*
* extern int initialize_foobar_device(int, int, int) __init;
*
* For initialized data:
* You should insert __initdata between the variable name and equal
* sign followed by value, e.g.:
*
* static int init_variable __initdata = 0;
* static char linux_logo[] __initdata = { 0x32, 0x36, ... };
*
* Don't forget to initialize data not at file scope, i.e. within a function,
* as gcc otherwise puts the data into the bss section and not into the init
* section.
*
* Also note, that this data cannot be "const".
