x86, kvm: Fix section mismatches in kvm.c

The function paravirt_ops_setup() has been refering the
variable no_timer_check, which is a __initdata. Thus generates
the following warning. paravirt_ops_setup() function is called
from kvm_guest_init() which is a __init function. So to fix
this we mark paravirt_ops_setup as __init.

The sections-check output that warned us about this was:

LD arch/x86/built-in.o
WARNING: arch/x86/built-in.o(.text+0x166ce): Section mismatch in
reference from the function paravirt_ops_setup() to the variable
.init.data:no_timer_check
The function paravirt_ops_setup() references
the variable __initdata no_timer_check.
This is often because paravirt_ops_setup lacks a __initdata
annotation or the annotation of no_timer_check is wrong.
