powerpc: Enable jump label support
When looking through some instruction traces I noticed our tracepoint checks were inline. It turns out we don't have CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL enabled. By enabling CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL we replace a load/compare/branch with a nop at every tracepoint call. For example in do_IRQ: CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL disabled: stdx 3,11,9 lwz 0,8(29) cmpwi 7,0,0 bne- 7,.L124 bl .irq_enter CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL enabled: stdx 3,11,9 nop bl .irq_enter Signed-off-by: Anton Blanchard <anton@samba.org> Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org>
