[PATCH v2] powerpc/8xx: Allow disabling KUAP at boot time

[PATCH v2] powerpc/8xx: Allow disabling KUAP at boot time

[Christophe Leroy]

PPC64 uses MMU features to enable/disable KUAP at boot time.
But feature fixups are applied way too early on PPC32.

But since commit c16728835eec ("powerpc/32: Manage KUAP in C"),
all KUAP is in C so it is now possible to use static branches.

v2: Added missing linux/jump_label.h which leads to build failure when CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL_FEATURE_CHECKS is not selected
