alloc_per_cpu_data() is called by find_memory(), which is marked as
__init. Therefore alloc_per_cpu_data() can also be marked as __init to
remedy this modpost problem.
WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o: section mismatch in reference: alloc_per_cpu_data (section: .text) -> memblock_alloc_try_nid (section: .init.text)
