[PATCH 3/3] jump_label: make initial NOP patching the special case

Ard Biesheuvel
2022-06-08T10:45:42Z

Instead of defaulting to patching NOP opcodes at init time, and leaving
it to the architectures to override this if this is not needed, switch
to a model where doing nothing is the default. This is the common case
by far, as only MIPS requires NOP patching at init time. On all other
architectures, the correct encodings are emitted by the compiler and so
no initial patching is needed.
