Subject: kernel/profile: fix profile_init() section mismatch
From: Paul Mundt <lethal@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
profile_init() calls in to alloc_bootmem() on early initialization. While
alloc_bootmem() is __init, the reference itself is safe in that it is
tucked below a !slab_is_available() check. So, flag profile_init() as
__ref.
