The ks_pcie_host_init() callback registered by the driver is invoked by
dw_pcie_host_init(). Since the driver probe is not guaranteed to finish
before the kernel initialization phase, the memory associated with
ks_pcie_host_init() may already be freed by free_initmem().

It is observed in practice that the print associated with free_initmem()
which is:
	"Freeing unused kernel memory: ..."
is displayed before the driver is probed, following which an exception is
triggered when ks_pcie_host_init() is invoked which looks like:

	Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ...
	Mem abort info:
	...
	pc : ks_pcie_host_init+0x0/0x540
	lr : dw_pcie_host_init+0x170/0x498
	...
	ks_pcie_host_init+0x0/0x540 (P)
	ks_pcie_probe+0x728/0x84c
	platform_probe+0x5c/0x98
	really_probe+0xbc/0x29c
	__driver_probe_device+0x78/0x12c
	driver_probe_device+0xd8/0x15c
	...

Fix this by removing the "__init" macro associated with the
ks_pcie_host_init() callback and the ks_pcie_init_id() function that it
internally invokes.

I dropped this from pci/controller/keystone because of the resulting
section mismatch:

  https://lore.kernel.org/r/202510010726.GPljD7FR-lkp@intel.com

ks_pcie_host_init() calls hook_fault_code(), which is __init, so we
can't make ks_pcie_host_init() non-__init.

Both are bad problems, but there's no point in just swapping one
problem for a different one.
