Currently we see the following link warning:

  WARNING: vmlinux.o(.pci_fixup_final+0xefc): Section mismatch in
  reference from the variable __pci_fixup_malta_pcnet32_ioports_fixup164
  to the function .init.text:malta_pcnet32_ioports_fixup()
  The variable __pci_fixup_malta_pcnet32_ioports_fixup164 references
  a function __init malta_pcnet32_ioports_fixup().
  This is often seen when error handling in the init function
  uses functionality in the exit path.
  The fix is often to remove the __init annotation of
  malta_pcnet32_ioports_fixup() so it may be used outside an exit section.

This is from the addition of "mti_malta32: fix the pci resource conflicts"
(5c19c1c31c77 on v5.2/standard/mti-malta32) - which is a relatively old
commit, but w/o a malta+PCnet32, I can't speak to whether this commit is
still needed, or if the PCI resource overlap was solved another way.

Hence here, we take the safe path and just remove the __init annotation.
