Why is text_mutex used in jump_label_transform for x86_64

["chengjian (D)" <cj.chengjian@huawei.com>]

Hi，everyone

I'm sorry to disturb you. I have a problem about jump_label, and a bit 
confused about the code

I noticed that text_mutex is used in this function under x86_64 
architecture,
but other architectures do not.

in arch/x86/kernel/jump_label.c
         static void __ref jump_label_transform(struct jump_entry *entry,
              enum jump_label_type type,
              int init)
         {
          mutex_lock(&text_mutex);
          __jump_label_transform(entry, type, init);
          mutex_unlock(&text_mutex);

in arch/arm64/kernel/jump_label.c

         void arch_jump_label_transform(struct jump_entry *entry,
                                        enum jump_label_type type)
         {
                 void *addr = (void *)jump_entry_code(entry);
                 u32 insn;

                 if (type == JUMP_LABEL_JMP) {
                         insn = 
aarch64_insn_gen_branch_imm(jump_entry_code(entry),
jump_entry_target(entry),
AARCH64_INSN_BRANCH_NOLINK);
                 } else {
                         insn = aarch64_insn_gen_nop();
                 }

                 aarch64_insn_patch_text_nosync(addr, insn);
         }


Is there anything wrong with x86

or

is this missing for other architectures?


Thanks
