Not true, and this patch will break the BGRT code.  bgrt_init, which
does indeed have an __init annotation, stores bgrt_image and
bgrt_image_size into the .private and .size fields of a sysfs
bin_attribute, which does *not* have an __initdata annotation, and which
will get read whenever the user reads the corresponding sysfs attribute.
