The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications.  For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.

After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out.  Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.

Note that some harmless section mismatch warnings may result, since
notify_cpu_starting() and cpu_up() are arch independent (kernel/cpu.c)
are flagged as __cpuinit  -- so if we remove the __cpuinit from
arch specific callers, we will also get section mismatch warnings.
As an intermediate step, we intend to turn the linux/init.h cpuinit
content into no-ops as early as possible, since that will get rid
of these warnings.  In any case, they are temporary and harmless.

This removes all the arch/sparc uses of the __cpuinit macros from
C files and removes __CPUINIT from assembly files.  Note that even
though arch/sparc/kernel/trampoline_64.S has instances of ".previous"
in it, they are all paired off against explicit ".section" directives,
and not implicitly paired with __CPUINIT (unlike mips and arm were).

For the related next strcpy(), the destination length is less than 512,
but the source maximize length may be 'OPROMMAXPARAM' (4096) which is
more than 512.

One work flow may:
  openprom_sunos_ioctl() ->  if (cmd == OPROMSETOPT)
    getstrings() ->  will alloc buffer with size 'OPROMMAXPARAM'.
    opromsetopt() ->  devide the buffer into 'var' and 'value'
      of_set_property() -> pass
        prom_setprop() -> pass
          ldom_set_var()

And do not mind the additional 4 alignment buffer increasing, since
'sizeof(pkt) - sizeof(pkt.header)' is 4 alignment at least.

'boot_command_line' and 'full_boot_str' has a fix length, 'cmdline_p' and
'boot_command' maybe larger than them. So use strlcpy() instead of strcpy()
to avoid memory overflow.

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option.  As a result, the __dev*
markings need to be removed.

This change removes the use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata,
and __devexit from these drivers.

Based on patches originally written by Bill Pemberton, but redone by me
in order to handle some of the coding style issues better, by hand.

The DS driver registers as a subsys_initcall() but this can be too
early, in particular this risks registering before we've had a chance
to allocate and setup module_kset in kernel/params.c which is
performed also as a subsyts_initcall().

Register DS using device_initcall() insteal.

This makes vio_register_driver() get the module owner & name at compile
time like PCI drivers do, and adds a name pointer directly in struct
vio_driver to avoid having to explicitly initialize the embedded
struct device.

Emit the function name not the address when possible.

builtin_return_address() gives an address.  When building
a kernel with CONFIG_KALLSYMS, emit the actual function
name not the address.
