[PATCH v2] powerpc: Add jump label support

From: Michael Ellerman <michael at ellerman.id.au>
This patch adds support for the new "jump label" feature.
Unlike x86 and sparc we just merrily patch the code with no locks etc,
as far as I know this is safe, but I'm not really sure what the x86/sparc
code is protecting against so maybe it's not.
I also don't see any reason for us to implement the poke_early() routine,
even though sparc does.
[BenH: Updated the patch to upstream generic changes]

If no objection I'll stick that in powerpc -next tomorrow, it's been around
for a while, and it seems to just work so ...
