I think what you have below should work modulo the no out-of-line
branches and the following change:

I think here its:
if (jump_label_enabled())
jump_label_dec();


> + } else {
> sysctl_sched_features |= (1UL << i);

> + if (jump_label_enabled(&sched_feat_keys[i]))

Same here:
if (!jump_label_enabled())
jump_label_inc()




The inc/dec behavior we have now, in fact will only mess up in the case
where we define 'static_branch_true()'. Because then, in that case the
jump_label_inc() will cause a jump to the false branch. So as long as we
don't introduce 'static_branch_true()' and do an early setting of those
branches which are true via __init code as you have here, I think things are
correct.

Thanks,

-Jason
