Subject: mm: fix section mismatch warning in page_alloc.c
From: Sam Ravnborg <sam@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

With CONFIG_HOTPLUG=n and CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y we saw
following warning:
WARNING: mm/built-in.o(.text+0x6864): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text: (between 'process_zones' and 'pageset_cpuup_callback')

The culprit was zone_batchsize() which were annotated __devinit but used
from process_zones() which is annotated __cpuinit.  zone_batchsize() are
used from another function annotated __meminit so the only valid option is
to drop the annotation of zone_batchsize() so we know it is always valid to
use it.
