powerpc/pseries: Use jump labels for hcall tracepoints
hcall tracepoints add quite a few instructions to our hcall path:
plpar_hcall:
mr r2,r2
mfcr r0
stw r0,8(r1)
b 164 <---- start
ld r12,0(r2)
std r12,32(r1)
cmpdi r12,0
beq 164 <---- end
...
We have an unconditional branch that gets noped out during boot and
a load/compare/branch. We also store the tracepoint value to the
stack for the hcall_exit path to use.
By using jump labels we can simplify this to just a single nop that
gets replaced with a branch when the tracepoint is enabled:
plpar_hcall:
mr r2,r2
mfcr r0
stw r0,8(r1)
nop <----
...
If jump labels are not enabled, we fall back to the old method.
