That was the original proposal from Russell;
AFAICT it's very similar to how platform device resources are handled
- it allows marking the original definition of the data as __initdata
(need to add that) thus freeing up its space after the initialization
phase completes. Later, in some scenarios, it might also allow to free
up the copied data (not done now, but the copying happen only once in
the lifetime of the driver so I'm fine with it).
