Subject[PATCH 3/4] x86/jump_label: Implement arch_static_assert()
Implement the static (branch) assertion. It simply emits the address
of the next instruction into a special section which objtool will read
and validate against either __jump_table or .altinstructions.

Use like:

if (static_branch_likely(_key)) {
arch_static_assert();
/* do stuff */
}

Or

if (static_cpu_has(_feat)) {
arch_static_assert();
/* do stuff */
}
