With this patch in place, mips:allnoconfig fails to build with
the following error.

Error log:
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0x9c70): Section mismatch in reference from the function reserve_exception_space() to the function .meminit.text:memblock_reserve()
The function reserve_exception_space() references
the function __meminit memblock_reserve().
This is often because reserve_exception_space lacks a __meminit
annotation or the annotation of memblock_reserve is wrong.
ERROR: modpost: Section mismatches detected.
Set CONFIG_SECTION_MISMATCH_WARN_ONLY=y to allow them.
make[2]: *** [scripts/Makefile.modpost:62: vmlinux.symvers] Error 1
make[2]: *** Deleting file 'vmlinux.symvers'
make[1]: *** [Makefile:1292: vmlinux] Error 2
make: *** [Makefile:222: __sub-make] Error 2
