This is wrong.
On arm (just one example of several) the __exit section are discarded
at buildtime so any reference from __init to __exit will cause the
linker to error out.
The real solution is only to declare functiones used solely during
exit as __exit.
The whole point of using __exit is to tell that this can be safely
dropped when built-in because it is not used then.
