Subject: [PATCH 2/4] i386: fix another modpost warning



o MODPOST generates warning for i386 if kernel is compiled with
  CONFIG_RELOCATABLE=y

WARNING: vmlinux - Section mismatch: reference to .init.data: from .data between 'this_cpu' (at offset 0xc05194d0) and 'cpuinfo_op'

o this_cpu pointer should be of type __cpuinitdata.
