FWIW, I would actually prefer merging the 'struct arm_soc_desc', 'struct
arm_soc_smp_init_ops' and 'struct arm_soc_smp_ops' structures into a
single 'struct smp_ops' for simplicity.

You can't easily validate correct usage of __init marked code from the 
rest if everything is pulled in the same struct.  This is why I asked 
they be split.

Ah, I see. However, in version 6 of the patch set, each platform
was marking both structures as __initdata, which seems to make
your argument pointless because we don't actually validate the
sections.
