[PATCH v12 7/7] arm64: smp: Mark IPI globals as __ro_after_init

[Douglas Anderson]

Mark the three IPI-related globals in smp.c as "__ro_after_init" since
they are only ever set in set_smp_ipi_range(), which is marked
"__init". This is a better and more secure marking than the old
"__read_mostly".

This patch is almost completely unrelated to the rest of the series
other than the fact that it would cause a merge conflict with the
series if sent separately. I tacked it on to this series in response
to Stephen's feedback on v11 of this series [1]. If someone hates it
(not sure why they would), it could be dropped. If someone loves it,
it could be promoted to the start of the series and/or land on its own
(resolving merge conflicts).
