Subject: [GIT PULL] Stage 1 of __cpuinit removal

Linus,

Please pull the following to get stage one of the __cpuinit removal.

The two commits here 1) dummy out all the __cpuinit macros so that we no
longer generate such sections, and then 2) remove all the section
processing that we used to do for those sections.

This makes all the __cpuinit and friends no-ops, so that we can remove
the use cases of it at our leisure.  Expect stage 2, which does the
tree wide removal sweep at the end of the merge window.

Note that you will get a conflict on vmlinux.lds -- from the final
__devinit removal change from Greg's device pull.  It isn't complex,
but a resolved version of the file (and a __devinit removal aware
version of the modpost commit) is present in any linux-next tree from
the past week if a double check is desired.

Thanks,
Paul.
