powerpc: define arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed() for lockdep
Under certain circumstances, we hit a warning in lockdep_register_key:
if (WARN_ON_ONCE(static_obj(key)))
return;
This occurs when the key falls into initmem that has since been freed
and can now be reused. This has been observed on boot, and under memory
pressure.
Define arch_is_kernel_initmem_freed(), which allows lockdep to correctly
identify this memory as dynamic.
This fixes a bug picked up by the powerpc64 syzkaller instance where we
hit the WARN via alloc_netdev_mqs.

The ppc64 syzkaller link is probably not stable enough to go into
the git history forever, but fwiw:
