- The __init-style tags on declarations don't actually do anything and
  the compiler doesn't check for consistency with the definition - it's
  best to just omit it from the declaration.

- Setting nr_kernel_pages to be unloaded at free_initmem() seems risky.

- nr_kernel_pages is actually __meminitdata.

So I'll drop this hunk.
