Yup, we could probably, instead of freeing the __init section, mark it
unaccessible with the MMU. This would put us in xmon as soon as we try to
access one of these. I'm not sure if this can be done without disabling
the BAT mapping of the kernel, however. Well, of course, that would be a
DEBUG option, not a feature of the "standard" kernel.
