[PATCH] acpi/arm64: Mark next_platform_timer as __init

Fix section mismatch warning:

WARNING: modpost: vmlinux.o(.text.unlikely+0x95ac): Section mismatch in reference from the function next_platform_timer() to the variable .init.data:acpi_gtdt_desc
The function next_platform_timer() references
the variable __initdata acpi_gtdt_desc.
This is often because next_platform_timer lacks a __initdata
annotation or the annotation of acpi_gtdt_desc is wrong.
