lockdep: fix static memory detection even more
commit 0a6b58c5cd0dfd7961e725212f0fc8dfc5d96195 upstream. On the parisc architecture, lockdep reports for all static objects which are in the __initdata section (e.g. "setup_done" in devtmpfs, "kthreadd_done" in init/main.c) this warning: INFO: trying to register non-static key. The warning itself is wrong, because those objects are in the __initdata section, but the section itself is on parisc outside of range from _stext to _end, which is why the static_obj() functions returns a wrong answer. While fixing this issue, I noticed that the whole existing check can be simplified a lot. Instead of checking against the _stext and _end symbols (which include code areas too) just check for the .data and .bss segments (since we check a data object). This can be done with the existing is_kernel_core_data() macro. In addition objects in the __initdata section can be checked with init_section_contains(), and is_kernel_rodata() allows keys to be in the _ro_after_init section. This partly reverts and simplifies commit bac59d18c701 ("x86/setup: Fix static memory detection").
