As a general note, it's unfortunate that we put asm with alternatives in
<asm/assembler.h>, as that's included by <asm/alternative.h>, so we're
relying on things that aren't defined yet, and users have to remember to
include <asm/alternative.h>.

That's already the case for dcache_by_line_op, so I guess that's
something to deal with another day.

Otherwise, this looks good, and I guess this wil be auto-nopped in a
subsqeuent version, so FWIW:
