[PATCH v3 4/5] x86/asm: Add asm macros for static keys/jump labels

From: Andy Lutomirski
Date: Thu Nov 12 2015 - 15:59:51 EST


Unfortunately, we can only do this if HAVE_JUMP_LABEL. In principle, we
could do some serious surgery on the core jump label infrastructure
to keep the patch infrastructure available on x86 on all builds, but
that's probably not worth it.

Implementing the macros using a conditional branch as a fallback
seems like a bad idea: we'd have to clobber flags.

This limitation can't cause silent failures -- trying to include
asm/jump_label.h at all on a non-HAVE_JUMP_LABEL kernel will error
out. The macro's users are responsible for handling this issue
themselves.
