Subject: sparc64: fix compile warning section mismatch in find_node()

From: Thomas Tai <thomas.tai@oracle.com>


[ Upstream commit 87a349f9cc0908bc0cfac0c9ece3179f650ae95a ]

A compile warning is introduced by a commit to fix the find_node().
This patch fix the compile warning by moving find_node() into __init
section. Because find_node() is only used by memblock_nid_range() which
is only used by a __init add_node_ranges(). find_node() and
memblock_nid_range() should also be inside __init section.
