    The issue is triggered by an allocation in "init reclaimed" region.
    ARC _stext emcompasses the init region (for historical reasons we wanted
    the init.text to be under .text as well). This however trips up
    __check_object_size()->check_kernel_text_object() which treats this as
    object bleeding into kernel text.
    
    Fix that by rezoning _stext to start from regular kernel .text and leave
    out .init altogether.
