making a powerpc target with PCI support, shows the
following warning:

  MODPOST vmlinux.o
WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x10430): Section mismatch in reference from the function pcibios_allocate_bus_resources() to the function .init.text:reparent_resources()
The function pcibios_allocate_bus_resources() references
the function __init reparent_resources().
This is often because pcibios_allocate_bus_resources lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of reparent_resources is wrong.

This patch fix this warning by removing the __init
annotation before reparent_resources.

No comments? So, is this fix OK, or unusable?

Nah, just me missing it but it's reference on patchwork. I'll pick
the patch up. We can probably make some of that __devinit instead
of __init though but we can look at it later.

Cheers
