Subject: [PATCH] powerpc: fix function annotations to avoid section mismatch warnings with gcc-10

Certain warnings are emitted for powerpc code when building with a gcc-10
toolset:

    WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x377c): Section mismatch in
    reference from the function remove_pmd_table() to the function
    .meminit.text:split_kernel_mapping()
    The function remove_pmd_table() references
    the function __meminit split_kernel_mapping().
    This is often because remove_pmd_table lacks a __meminit
    annotation or the annotation of split_kernel_mapping is wrong.

Add the appropriate __init and __meminit annotations to make modpost not
complain. In all the cases there are just a single callsite from another
__init or __meminit function:

__meminit remove_pagetable() -> remove_pud_table() -> remove_pmd_table()
__init prom_init() -> setup_secure_guest()
__init xive_spapr_init() -> xive_spapr_disabled()
