[PATCH v6 1/6] jump_label: Provide CONFIG-driven build state defaults

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-15 18:03:33
Also in: linux-hardening, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: static branch/call, the rest · Maintainers: Peter Zijlstra, Josh Poimboeuf, Jason Baron, Alice Ryhl, Linus Torvalds

As shown in jump_label.h[1], choosing the initial state of static
branches changes the assembly layout. If the condition is expected to
be likely it's inline, and if unlikely it is out of line via a jump. A
few places in the kernel use (or could be using) a CONFIG to choose the
default state, which would give a small performance benefit to their
compile-time declared default. Provide the infrastructure to do this.
