serial: pl011: Fix oops on -EPROBE_DEFER
commit 27afac93 upstream. If probing of a pl011 gets deferred until after free_initmem(), an oops ensues because pl011_console_match() is called which has been freed. Fix by removing the __init attribute from the function and those it calls. Commit 10879ae5 ("serial: pl011: add console matching function") introduced pl011_console_match() not just for early consoles but regular preferred consoles, such as those added by acpi_parse_spcr(). Regular consoles may be registered after free_initmem() for various reasons, one being deferred probing, another being dynamic enablement of serial ports using a DeviceTree overlay. Thus, pl011_console_match() must not be declared __init and the functions it calls mustn't either.
