Subject: [PATCH] x86: Fix section mismatches in apic.

 Impact: Fix section mismatch

find_unisys_acpi_oem_table() and unmap_unisys_acpi_oem_table() are non
init functions, but these functions calls some init functions. But we
need these functions as non-init functions.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x16250): Section mismatch in reference from
the function find_unisys_acpi_oem_table() to the function
.init.text:early_acpi_os_unmap_memory()
The function find_unisys_acpi_oem_table() references
the function __init early_acpi_os_unmap_memory().
This is often because find_unisys_acpi_oem_table lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of early_acpi_os_unmap_memory is wrong.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x16269): Section mismatch in reference from
the function find_unisys_acpi_oem_table() to the function
.init.text:early_acpi_os_unmap_memory()
The function find_unisys_acpi_oem_table() references
the function __init early_acpi_os_unmap_memory().
This is often because find_unisys_acpi_oem_table lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of early_acpi_os_unmap_memory is wrong.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x16279): Section mismatch in reference from
the function find_unisys_acpi_oem_table() to the function
.init.text:__acpi_map_table()
The function find_unisys_acpi_oem_table() references
the function __init __acpi_map_table().
This is often because find_unisys_acpi_oem_table lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of __acpi_map_table is wrong.

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x16297): Section mismatch in reference from
the function unmap_unisys_acpi_oem_table() to the function
.init.text:__acpi_unmap_table()
The function unmap_unisys_acpi_oem_table() references
the function __init __acpi_unmap_table().
This is often because unmap_unisys_acpi_oem_table lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of __acpi_unmap_table is wrong.
