__initdata tag should be placed between the variable name and equal
sign for the variable to be placed in the intended .init.data section.

I see lots of other occurences of that in arch/powerpc. Why not send a
single patch to update them all?

The other occurences while not following the preferred kernel coding style
are (probably) working OK with gcc. This particular occurence just doesn't
work as it should.

Why would the other occurrences work but not this one?

Regardless, why don't we just do a single patch to clean them all up to
match coding style and (probably) do what they're intended.

cheers
