This causes a section mismatch because of_flat_dt_get_machine_name() 
has an __init annotation. I did not notice that before, sorry.

It can be fixed with a patch like below:

A similar fix is required for the other driver in this series (patch 
2/5). I need some advise on whether I should introduce a common 
function to get the machine name post kernel boot-up (I cannot see an 
existing one). If yes, any advise on which file it should go into?

Thanks,
Sekhar
