Subject: [PATCH] cpu: do not annotate exported register_cpu_notifier()

Fix following warning:
WARNING: o-x86_64/kernel/built-in.o(__ksymtab+0xfb0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable __ksymtab_register_cpu_notifier to the function .cpuinit.text:register_cpu_notifier()

register_cpu_notifier() are used from modules that may be
loaded long after init has completed.
Drop the annotation so the function is kept after init.
