[PATCH 5.18 1/6] tick/nohz: unexport __init-annotated tick_nohz_full_setup()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

From: Masahiro Yamada <masahiroy@kernel.org>

commit 2390095113e98fc52fffe35c5206d30d9efe3f78 upstream.

EXPORT_SYMBOL and __init is a bad combination because the .init.text
section is freed up after the initialization. Hence, modules cannot
use symbols annotated __init. The access to a freed symbol may end up
with kernel panic.

modpost used to detect it, but it had been broken for a decade.

Commit 28438794aba4 ("modpost: fix section mismatch check for exported
init/exit sections") fixed it so modpost started to warn it again, then
this showed up:

    MODPOST vmlinux.symvers
  WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(___ksymtab_gpl+tick_nohz_full_setup+0x0): Section mismatch in reference from the variable __ksymtab_tick_nohz_full_setup to the function .init.text:tick_nohz_full_setup()
  The symbol tick_nohz_full_setup is exported and annotated __init
  Fix this by removing the __init annotation of tick_nohz_full_setup or drop the export.

Drop the export because tick_nohz_full_setup() is only called from the
built-in code in kernel/sched/isolation.c.
