Subject[PATCH 4.17 305/324] x86/mm/init: Add helper for freeing kernel image pages
Date
4.17-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@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.
