Subject: [PATCH] pch_uart: Remove __initdata annotation from dmi_table

The dmi_table is best accessed from the probe function, which is not
an __init function. Drop the __initdata annotation from the dmi_table
to avoid the section mismatch compiler warnings:

WARNING: drivers/tty/serial/pch_uart.o(.text+0x4871): Section mismatch
in reference from the function pch_uart_init_port() to the variable
.init.data:pch_uart_dmi_table
