commit 76b235c6bcb16062d663e2ee96db0b69f2e6bc14 upstream.

Since we've already stepped away from ENABLE is a JMP and DISABLE is a
NOP with the branch_default bits, and are going to make it even worse,
rename it to make it all clearer.

This way we don't mix multiple levels of logic attributes, but have a
plain 'physical' name for what the current instruction patching status
of a jump label is.

This is a first step in removing the naming confusion that has led to
a stream of avoidable bugs such as:

  a833581e372a ("x86, perf: Fix static_key bug in load_mm_cr4()")

Add the arch-specific code to support jump labels for ARM and Thumb-2.

This code will only be activated on compilers that are capable of
building it.  It has been tested with GCC 4.6 patched with the patch
from GCC bug 48637.
