Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fix a Section mismatch in arch/x86/pci/mmconfig-shared.c
 and include/linux/sfi_acpi.h

acpi_sfi_table_parse() should be __init. tested on x86 system!

warning msg:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x322e69): Section mismatch in reference from 
the function acpi_sfi_table_parse() to the function 
.init.text:acpi_table_parse()
The function acpi_sfi_table_parse() references
the function __init acpi_table_parse().
This is often because acpi_sfi_table_parse lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of acpi_table_parse is wrong.
