[PATCH 4/5] powerpc: use the jump label for cpu_has_feature

The cpu features are fixed once the probe of cpu features are done.
And the function cpu_has_feature() does be used in some hot path.
The checking of the cpu features for each time of invoking of
cpu_has_feature() seems suboptimal. This tries to reduce this
overhead of this check by using jump label. But we can only use
the jump label for this check only after the execution of
jump_label_init(), so we introduce another jump label to
still do the feature check by default before all the cpu
feature jump labels are initialized.
