Subject: [PATCH RFC 1/7] x86/head/64: Mark startup_gdt and startup_gdt_descr as __initdata
Date:   Wed, 12 Jul 2023 11:30:05 +0800
Message-Id: <c85903a7cfad37d14a7e5a4df9fc7119a3669fb3.1689130310.git.houwenlong.hwl@antgroup.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1689130310.git.houwenlong.hwl@antgroup.com>
References: <cover.1689130310.git.houwenlong.hwl@antgroup.com>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Precedence: bulk

As startup_gdt and startup_gdt_descr are only used in booting, make them
as __initdata to allow them to be freed after boot.
