Subject: init/main.c: fix section mismatch warning
From: "Rakib Mullick" <rakib.mullick@xxxxxxxxx>

 LD      init/built-in.o
WARNING: init/built-in.o(.text+0x207): Section mismatch in reference
from the function init_post() to the function
.init.text:prepare_namespace()
The function init_post() references
the function __init prepare_namespace().
This is often because init_post lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of prepare_namespace is wrong.

init_post() has only one callsite and that is an __init function.

So by correctly marking init_post() as __init, we no longer care whether
or not it gets inlined into its __init caller.
