    fbdev: section cleanup in vfb
    
    Fix up the section in the vfb driver, by moving the variables vfb_default
    and vfb_fix from .init.data to .devinit.data
    
    This fixes the following warnings issued by modpost:
    
    WARNING: drivers/video/vfb.o(.devinit.text+0xf8): Section mismatch in reference from the function vfb_probe() to the variable .init.data:vfb_default
    The function __devinit vfb_probe() references
    a variable __initdata vfb_default.
    If vfb_default is only used by vfb_probe then
    annotate vfb_default with a matching annotation.
    
    WARNING: drivers/video/vfb.o(.devinit.text+0x114): Section mismatch in reference from the function vfb_probe() to the variable .init.data:vfb_fix
    The function __devinit vfb_probe() references
    a variable __initdata vfb_fix.
    If vfb_fix is only used by vfb_probe then
    annotate vfb_fix with a matching annotation.
