[SERIAL]: Fix section mismatches in Sun serial console drivers.
We're exporting an __init function, oops :-)
The core issue here is that add_preferred_console() is marked
as __init, this makes it impossible to invoke this thing from
a driver probe routine which is what the Sparc serial drivers
need to do.
There is no harm in dropping the __init marker. This code will
actually work properly when invoked from a modular driver,
except that init will probably not pick up the console change
without some other support code.
Then we can drop the __init from sunserial_console_match()
and we're no longer exporting an __init function to modules.
