Do we expect to use this more widely? If this only really matters for
d_hash() it might be better to handle this via the alternatives
framework with callbacks and avoid the need for new infrastructure.

As-is this will break BE kernels as instructions are always encoded
little-endian regardless of data endianness. We usually handle that by
using __le32 instruction pointers and using le32_to_cpu()/cpu_to_le32()
when reading/writing, e.g.
#include <asm/byteorder.h>
static inline void __runtime_fixup_16(__le32 *p, unsigned int val)
{
u32 insn = le32_to_cpu(*p);
insn &= 0xffe0001f;
insn |= (val & 0xffff) << 5;
*p = cpu_to_le32(insn);
}
We have some helpers for instruction manipulation, and we can use
aarch64_insn_encode_immediate() here, e.g.
#include <asm/insn.h>
static inline void __runtime_fixup_16(__le32 *p, unsigned int val)
{
u32 insn = le32_to_cpu(*p);
insn = aarch64_insn_encode_immediate(AARCH64_INSN_IMM_16, insn, val);
*p = cpu_to_le32(insn);
}

This is missing the necessary cache maintenance and context
synchronization event.
After the new values are written, we need cache maintenance (a D$ clean
to PoU, then an I$ invalidate to PoU) followed by a context
synchronization event (e.g. an ISB) before CPUs are guaranteed to use
the new instructions rather than the old ones.
Depending on how your system has been integrated, you might get away
without that. If you see:
Data cache clean to the PoU not required for I/D coherence
... in your dmesg, that means you only need the I$ invalidate and
context synchronization event, and you might happen to get those by
virtue of alternative patching running between dcache_init_early() and
the use of the patched instructions.
However, in general, we do need all of that. As long as this runs before
secondaries are brought up, we can handle that with
caches_clean_inval_pou(). Assuming the __le32 changes above, I'd expect
this to be:
static inline void __runtime_fixup_ptr(void *where, unsigned long val)
{
__le32 *p = lm_alias(where);
__runtime_fixup_16(p, val);
__runtime_fixup_16(p + 1, val >> 16);
__runtime_fixup_16(p + 2, val >> 32);
__runtime_fixup_16(p + 3, val >> 48);
caches_clean_inval_pou((unsigned long)p, (unsigned long)(p + 4));
}

As with the other bits above, I'd expect this to be:
static inline void __runtime_fixup_shift(void *where, unsigned long val)
{
__le32 *p = lm_alias(where);
u32 insn = le32_to_cpu(*p);
insn = aarch64_insn_encode_immediate(AARCH64_INSN_IMM_R, insn, val);
*p = cpu_to_le32(insn);
caches_clean_inval_pou((unsigned long)p, (unsigned long)(p + 1));
}
