Is it correct to mark these as __init?

With my recent patch "arm/tegra: Use bus notifiers to trigger pinmux
setup", this data all gets used at pinmux/GPIO device probe time. Still,
I suppose that does all get triggered by tegra_dt_init() which is __init,
so if a device is guaranteed to probe as soon as a device registration
and driver exist for it, then everything you've marked as __init really
is guaranteed to be used then.
