[RFC] change keep_initrd and free_initrd_mem into .init section

Commit Message

Wang, Yalin Sept. 16, 2014, 5:09 a.m. UTC

this patch change keep_initrd to __initdata section,
and free_initrd_mem to __init section so that they can be freed by
free_initmem, free_initrd_mem is only called by free_initrd function,
so it's safe to free it after use.
