setup_text_poke_area() is a late init call so it runs before mark_rodata_ro() and after the init calls. This lets all the init code patching simply write to their locations. In the future, kprobes is going to allocate its instruction pages RO which means they will need setup_text__poke_area() to have been already called for their code patching. However, init_kprobes() (which allocates and patches some instruction pages) is an early init call so it happens before setup_text__poke_area(). start_kernel() calls poking_init() before any of the init calls. On powerpc, poking_init() is currently a nop. setup_text_poke_area() relies on kernel virtual memory, cpu hotplug and per_cpu_areas being setup. setup_per_cpu_areas(), boot_cpu_hotplug_init() and mm_init() are called before poking_init(). Turn setup_text_poke_area() into poking_init().
