Well, it occurs to me that if you're using jump_label_enable() very
early, then it will be using the full arch_jump_label_transform()
anyway.  While the stop_machine(), locking, etc that the full version
does is redundant in a pre-SMP environment, it shouldn't hurt, so
perhaps there's no need for an _early variant at all.
