[reference PATCH v11 3/4] gpu: Fix uninitialized buddy for built-in drivers

[Joel Fernandes <joelagnelf@nvidia.com>]

From: Koen Koning <koen.koning@linux.intel.com>

Use subsys_initcall instead of module_init for the GPU buddy allocator,
so its initialization code runs before any gpu drivers.
Otherwise, a built-in driver that tries to use the buddy allocator will
run into a kernel NULL pointer dereference because slab_blocks is
uninitialized.

Specifically, this fixes drm/xe (as built-in) running into a kernel
panic during boot, because it uses buddy during device probe.

Fixes: ba110db8e1bc ("gpu: Move DRM buddy allocator one level up (part two)")

Please note: Greg and Danilo suggest fixing this in the Makefile like Koen
initially did, so please do so. I am just including this patch here for
reference.
