Subject: [PATCH 4.18 154/168] cpufreq: qcom-kryo: Fix section annotations

4.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nathan Chancellor <natechancellor@...il.com>

commit d51aea13dd6753186a2bea7619029c460bdf0c4c upstream.

There is currently a warning when building the Kryo cpufreq driver into
the kernel image:

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x8aa424): Section mismatch in reference from
the function qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe() to the function
.init.text:qcom_cpufreq_kryo_get_msm_id()
The function qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe() references
the function __init qcom_cpufreq_kryo_get_msm_id().
This is often because qcom_cpufreq_kryo_probe lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of qcom_cpufreq_kryo_get_msm_id is wrong.

Remove the '__init' annotation from qcom_cpufreq_kryo_get_msm_id
so that there is no more mismatch warning.

Additionally, Nick noticed that the remove function was marked as
'__init' when it should really be marked as '__exit'.

Fixes: 46e2856b8e18 (cpufreq: Add Kryo CPU scaling driver)
Fixes: 5ad7346b4ae2 (cpufreq: kryo: Add module remove and exit)
