Subject: uml: fix boot crash
From: Jeff Dike <jdike@xxxxxxxxxxx>
My copying of linux/init.h didn't go far enough. The definition of __used
singled out gcc minor version 3, but didn't care what the major version
was. This broke when unit-at-a-time was added and gcc started throwing
out initcalls.
This results in an early boot crash when ptrace tries to initialize a
process with an empty, uninitialized register set.
