Subject: [PATCH 5.4 182/191] mm/sparse.c: mark populate_section_memmap as __meminit

From: Ilya Leoshkevich <iii@...ux.ibm.com>

[ Upstream commit 030eab4f9ffb469344c10a46bc02c5149db0a2a9 ]

Building the kernel on s390 with -Og produces the following warning:

  WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x28dabe): Section mismatch in reference from the function populate_section_memmap() to the function .meminit.text:__populate_section_memmap()
  The function populate_section_memmap() references
  the function __meminit __populate_section_memmap().
  This is often because populate_section_memmap lacks a __meminit
  annotation or the annotation of __populate_section_memmap is wrong.

While -Og is not supported, in theory this might still happen with
another compiler or on another architecture.  So fix this by using the
correct section annotations.
