Once init is done, initmem is freed forever so no need to
test system_state at every call to patch_instruction().
Use jump_label.
This reduces by 2% the time needed to activate ftrace on an 8xx.
It also causes the qemu mpc8544ds emulation to crash.

Reverting this patch fixes the problem.
That's strange.
I was able to reproduce the problem.
Removing the __ro_after_init in front of
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE(init_mem_is_free) fixes the problem.
I can't understand why, mark_readonly() is called after free_initmem().
Moving static_branch_enable(&init_mem_is_free) before mark_initmem_nx()
also solves the problem.
There must be something wrong with mark_initmem_nx().
