4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Brian Gerst <[email protected]> commit 2476f2fa20568bd5d9e09cd35bcd73e99a6f4cc6 upstream Move the code to do the dynamic check to the altinstr_aux section so that it is discarded after alternatives have run and a static branch has been chosen. This way we're changing the dynamic branch from C code to assembly, which makes it *substantially* smaller while avoiding a completely unnecessary call to an out of line function.
