If we initdata the OF driver match information, the generic device driver layer could reference this freed memory.

In all cases there were a struct of_device_id variable defined __initdata. But it was referenced from struct platform_driver.of_match_table which is not guaranteed to be used during init only. So drop the __initdata annotation.
