[PATCH for-4.8 V2 09/10] powerpc: use jump label for mmu_has_feature

From: Kevin Hao <haokexin at gmail.com>

The mmu features are fixed once the probe of mmu features are done.
And the function mmu_has_feature() does be used in some hot path.
The checking of the mmu features for each time of invoking of
mmu_has_feature() seems suboptimal. This tries to reduce this
overhead of this check by using jump label.

The generated assemble code of the following c program:
	if (mmu_has_feature(MMU_FTR_XXX))
		xxx()
Before:
	lis     r9,-16230
	lwz     r9,12324(r9)
	lwz     r9,24(r9)
	andi.   r10,r9,16
	beqlr+

After:
	nop	if MMU_FTR_XXX is enabled
	b xxx	if MMU_FTR_XXX is not enabled
