Masahiro Yamada f7f04d1983 lib/sg_pool: change module_init(sg_pool_init) to subsys_initcall 
sg_alloc_table_chained() is called by several drivers, but if it is
called before sg_pool_init(), it results in a NULL pointer dereference
in sg_pool_alloc().

Since commit 9b1d6c8950 ("lib: scatterlist: move SG pool code from
SCSI driver to lib/sg_pool.c"), we rely on module_init(sg_pool_init)
is invoked before other module_init calls but this assumption is
fragile.

I slightly changed the link order while refactoring Kbuild, then
uncovered this issue. I should keep the current link order, but
depending on a specific call order among module_init is so fragile.

We usually define the init order by specifying *_initcall correctly,
or delay the driver probing by returning -EPROBE_DEFER.

Change module_initcall() to subsys_initcall(), and also delete the
pointless module_exit() because lib/sg_pool.c is always compiled as
built-in. (CONFIG_SG_POOL is bool)

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
