4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Dave Hansen <dave.han...@linux.intel.com> commit 6ea2738e0ca0e626c75202fb051c1e88d7a950fa upstream. When chunks of the kernel image are freed, free_init_pages() is used directly. Consolidate the three sites that do this. Also update the string to give an incrementally better description of that memory versus what was there before.
