Randy Dunlap 32f87ee521 KVM: SVM: hyper-v: placate modpost section mismatch error
commit 45dd9bc75d upstream.

modpost reports section mismatch errors/warnings:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: svm_hv_hardware_setup (section: .text) -> (unknown) (section: .init.data)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: svm_hv_hardware_setup (section: .text) -> (unknown) (section: .init.data)
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: svm_hv_hardware_setup (section: .text) -> (unknown) (section: .init.data)

This "(unknown) (section: .init.data)" all refer to svm_x86_ops.

Tag svm_hv_hardware_setup() with __init to fix a modpost warning as the
non-stub implementation accesses __initdata (svm_x86_ops), i.e. would
generate a use-after-free if svm_hv_hardware_setup() were actually invoked
post-init.  The helper is only called from svm_hardware_setup(), which is
also __init, i.e. lack of __init is benign other than the modpost warning.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
