[PATCH] powerpc/xive: Do not mark xive_request_ipi() as __init

Compiling ppc64le_defconfig with clang-14 shows a modpost warning:

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text+0xa74e0): Section mismatch in
reference from the function xive_setup_cpu_ipi() to the function
.init.text:xive_request_ipi()
The function xive_setup_cpu_ipi() references
the function __init xive_request_ipi().
This is often because xive_setup_cpu_ipi lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of xive_request_ipi is wrong.

xive_request_ipi() is called from xive_setup_cpu_ipi(), which is not
__init, so xive_request_ipi() should not be marked __init. Remove the
attribute so there is no more warning.
