Since this is built-in always, can we....

...use one of the non-modular initcalls here?   I'm trying to clean up most of
the non-modular uses of modular macros etc. since:

 (1) it is easy to accidentally code up an unused module_exit function
 (2) it can be misleading when reading the source, thinking it can be
      modular when the Makefile and/or Kconfig prohibit it
 (3) it requires the include of the module.h header file which in turn
     includes nearly everything else, thus increasing CPP overhead.

I figured no point in sending a follow on patch since this came in via
the akpm tree into next and that gets rebased/updated regularly.

Thanks,
Paul.
