Series context_tracking,x86: Defer some IPIs until a user->kernel transition | expand

Commit Message

Valentin Schneider Nov. 19, 2024, 3:34 p.m. UTC
Later commits will cause objtool to warn about non __ro_after_init static
keys being used in .noinstr sections in order to safely defer instruction
patching IPIs targeted at NOHZ_FULL CPUs.

Two such keys currently exist: mds_idle_clear and __sched_clock_stable,
which can both be modified at runtime.

As discussed at LPC 2024 during the realtime micro-conference, modifying
these specific keys incurs additional interference (SMT hotplug) or can
even be downright incompatible with NOHZ_FULL (unstable TSC).

Suppressing the IPI associated with modifying such keys is thus a minor
concern wrt NOHZ_FULL interference, so add a jump type that will be
leveraged by both the kernel (to know not to defer the IPI) and objtool (to
know not to generate the aforementioned warning).
