powerpc: Define arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed() for lockdep
Under certain circumstances, we hit a warning in lockdep_register_key: if (WARN_ON_ONCE(static_obj(key))) return; This occurs when the key falls into initmem that has since been freed and can now be reused. This has been observed on boot, and under memory pressure. Define arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed(), which allows lockdep to correctly identify this memory as dynamic. This fixes a bug picked up by the powerpc64 syzkaller instance where we hit the WARN via alloc_netdev_mqs.
