It's a pointer (from a table) to initialization functions for the
various pieces of RedBoot.  Try changing the lines to be:

  for (init_entry = __RedBoot_INIT_TAB__; init_entry != &__RedBoot_INIT_TAB_END__;  init_entry++) {
      diag_printf("Calling init: %p\n", init_entry->fun);
      (*init_entry->fun)();
      diag_printf("... back from: %p\n", init_entry->fun);
  }

This should then print out a number of lines with addresses.
Then use 'nm' or 'gdb' to figure out which function was called
last and you can carry on from there.
