Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] powerpc: use jump label for {cpu,mmu}_has_feature()

Hi,

v2:
Drop the following two patches as suggested by Ingo and Peter:
    jump_label: no need to acquire the jump_label_mutex in jump_lable_init()
    jump_label: introduce DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_{TRUE,FALSE}_ARRAY macros

v1:
I have tried to change the {cpu,mmu}_has_feature() to use jump label two yeas
ago [1]. But that codes seem a bit ugly. This is a reimplementation by moving the
jump_label_init() much earlier so the jump label can be used in a very earlier
stage. Boot test on p4080ds, t2080rdb and powermac (qemu). This patch series
is against linux-next.

Kevin Hao (6):
  jump_label: make it possible for the archs to invoke jump_label_init()
    much earlier
  powerpc: invoke jump_label_init() in a much earlier stage
  powerpc: kill mfvtb()
  powerpc: move the cpu_has_feature to a separate file
  powerpc: use the jump label for cpu_has_feature
  powerpc: use jump label for mmu_has_feature
