Fair enough. What I would like is to remove the need to play around with the placement of jump_label_init() across architectures. Jump labels are fundamentally a performance optimization, so unless you can explain how setting it as early as possible makes a material difference, performance or otherwise, I really think we should pursue a solution that does the static key manipulation at some later time.
Alright. It sounds like Catalin also prefers the same. This seems simple enough with minimal downsides: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20220607113238.769088-1-Jason@zx2c4.com/ (local) So maybe we should just go that route.
