[PATCH] x86, mtrr: mark range_new in mtrr_calc_range_state() as __initdata

From: Rasmus Villemoes
Date: Fri Nov 13 2015 - 04:48:23 EST


range_new doesn't seem to be used after init. It is only passed to
memset, sum_ranges, memcmp and x86_get_mtrr_mem_range, the latter of
which also only passes it on to various *range* library functions. So
mark it __initdata to free up an extra page after init.

nr_range_new is unconditionally assigned to before it is read, so
there's no point in having it static.
