Move the no_hash_pointers warning string into __initconst section, so that it is discarded after init. Remove common start/end characters. Also remove repeated lines from the array, since the compiler can't remove duplicate strings for us since the array must appear in __initconst as defined.
Note, a similar message appears in kernel/trace/trace.c, but compiling the feature is guarded by CONFIG_TRACING. It is not immediately obvious if a space-concious kernel would prefer CONFIG_TRACING=n. Therefore, it makes sense to keep the message for no_hash_pointers as __initconst, and not move the NOTICE-printing to a common function.
