For those non-nop platforms, I can only test x86/arm64/, but both has
__init mark. I'm not sure whether this is a problem for alpha etc. Maybe
I can check which section the trap_init() sits. Or to avoid any possible
regression, I can add __init mark to those remaining ones without it in
preparation patches.

This is to follow most weak NOP implementations in init/main.c to make
the style unified in the same file. I'm not sure which is better.
