Yes it's OK. We've used the LSB two bits in other places as well.

 That should be "bit 0" and "bit 1". Bits start at zero.

Also, I believe it may be even more readable if we make that into a
union:

	union {
		unsigned long type;
		struct jump_entry *entries;
		struct static_key_mod *next;
	};

Then we can remove the typecasts.

Could probably use key->type here too.

Have a separate function here:

	struct static_key_mod *mod = static_key_mod(key);

Here as well.
