Subject: x86: move a few device initialization objects into .devinit.rodata
X-Git-Tag: 2.1b_release~12498^2~32^3~3
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=821508d4ef7920283b960057903505fed609fd16;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Fkernel-mfld-blackbay.git

x86: move a few device initialization objects into .devinit.rodata

Impact: debuggability and micro-optimization

Putting whatever is possible into the (final) .rodata section increases
the likelihood of catching memory corruption bugs early, and reduces
false cache line sharing.
