Subject: [PATCH] riscv: to make sure the cores in .Lsecondary_park

The code in secondary_park is currently placed in the .init section.  The
kernel reclaims and clears this code when it finishes booting.  That
causes the cores parked in it to go to somewhere unpredictable, so we
move this function out of init to make sure the cores stay looping there.
