Subject: [PATCH 4.17 03/21] x86/platform/UV: Mark memblock related init code and data correctly

4.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dou Liyang <douly.fnst@...fujitsu.com>

commit 24cfd8ca1d28331b9dad3b88d1958c976b2cfab6 upstream.

parse_mem_block_size() and mem_block_size are only used during init. Mark
them accordingly.

Fixes: d7609f4210cb ("x86/platform/UV: Add kernel parameter to set memory block size")
