And while adding "special" functionality to the generic version, more and more
users of CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_FREE_INITRD_MEM will be removed.

Given how trivial this is and how many architectures can use it I'd
reverse the polarity and add a CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_FREE_INITRD_MEM
instead.

Given how trivial this is and how many architectures can use it I'd
reverse the polarity and add a CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_FREE_INITRD_MEM
instead.

In powerpc this was an __init function. Why not also put the generic
