Just to check, are you seeing issues today? IIUC the plugin only instruments
functions which are explicitly marked with __latent_entropy, and if we're
seeing that happen unexpectedly (or due to that being applying to __meminit /
__init), we might need to do likewise for other noinstr code.

Regardless, for this patch:
