mm: avoid section mismatch warning for memblock_type_name
Following section mismatch warning is thrown during build; WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x32408f): Section mismatch in reference from the function memblock_type_name() to the variable .meminit.data:memblock The function memblock_type_name() references the variable __meminitdata memblock. This is often because memblock_type_name lacks a __meminitdata annotation or the annotation of memblock is wrong. This is because memblock_type_name makes reference to memblock variable with attribute __meminitdata. Hence, the warning (even if the function is inline).
