x86: fix section mismatch warning - spp_getpage()

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.text+0x17a3e): Section mismatch in reference from the function set_pte_vaddr_pud() to the function .init.text:spp_getpage()
The function set_pte_vaddr_pud() references
the function __init spp_getpage().
This is often because set_pte_vaddr_pud lacks a __init
annotation or the annotation of spp_getpage is wrong.

spp_getpage is called from __init (__init_extra_mapping) and
non __init (set_pte_vaddr_pud) functions, so it can't be __init.
Unfortunately it calls alloc_bootmem_pages which is __init,
but does it only when bootmem allocator is available (after_bootmem == 0).

So annotate it accordingly.
