Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] jump label: Make arch_jump_label_text_poke_early() optional

For the forthcoming MIPS jump label support,
arch_jump_label_text_poke_early() is unneeded as the MIPS NOP
instruction is already optimal.

Supply a default implementation that does nothing.  Flag x86 and SPARC
as having arch_jump_label_text_poke_early().
