Nope. That just marks that the function's memory should be relesed just
before /sbin/init (or whatever) is called. To call a function at boottime,
put a call to it around line 896 in init/main.c, or in one of those functions.
Also look around line 41 of fs/filesystems.c, and I'm shure some other
places that I can't find right now.
