Should something more generic like the x86 alternative code be done for
ARM? It's very likely we will need patching in other places like for UP

I think yes, we need to - I can't see how we can sensibly combine
kernels without this.
However, the effect of this is that XIP can't use this - as the
kernel text is read-only.
