    Fix bugzilla #8679
    
    WARNING: arch/i386/kernel/built-in.o(.data+0x2148): Section mismatch: reference
    to .init.text: (between 'thermal_throttle_cpu_notifier' and 'mtrr_mutex')
    
    comes because struct notifier_block thermal_throttle_cpu_notifier in
    arch/i386/kernel/cpu/mcheck/therm_throt.c goes in .data section but the
    notifier callback function itself has been marked __cpuinit which becomes
    __init == .init.text when HOTPLUG_CPU=n.  The warning is bogus because the
    callback will never be called out if HOTPLUG_CPU=n in the first place (as
    one can see from kernel/cpu.c, the cpu_chain itself is __cpuinitdata :-)
    
    So, let's mark thermal_throttle_cpu_notifier as __cpuinitdata to fix
    the section mismatch warning.
