[PATCH v5 3/7] init_on_alloc: Unpessimize default-on builds

From: Kees Cook <hidden>
Date: 2021-03-09 21:44:02
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, linux-hardening, lkml
Subsystem: memory management - core, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Morton, David Hildenbrand, Linus Torvalds

Right now, the state of CONFIG_INIT_ON_ALLOC_DEFAULT_ON (and
...ON_FREE...) did not change the assembly ordering of the static branch
tests. Use the new jump_label macro to check CONFIG settings to default
to the "expected" state, unpessimizes the resulting assembly code.
