x86/lib/clear_page_64.S: Convert to ALTERNATIVE_2 macro
Move clear_page() up so that we can get 2-byte forward JMPs when
patching:
apply_alternatives: feat: 3*32+16, old: (ffffffff8130adb0, len: 5), repl: (ffffffff81d0b859, len: 5)

NOPs.
Also, make the REP_GOOD version be the default as the majority of
machines set REP_GOOD. This way we get to save ourselves the JMP:

x86/asm: Optimize clear_page()
Currently, we CALL clear_page() which then JMPs to the proper function
chosen by the alternatives.
What we should do instead is CALL the proper function directly. (This
was something Ingo suggested a while ago). So let's do that.
Measuring our favourite kernel build workload shows that there are no
significant changes in performance.

x86/lib/clear_page_64.S: Convert to ALTERNATIVE_2 macro
Move clear_page() up so that we can get 2-byte forward JMPs when
patching:
apply_alternatives: feat: 3*32+16, old: (ffffffff8130adb0, len: 5), repl: (ffffffff81d0b859, len: 5)
ffffffff8130adb0: alt_insn: 90 90 90 90 90
recompute_jump: new_displ: 0x0000003e
ffffffff81d0b859: rpl_insn: eb 3e 66 66 90
even though the compiler generated 5-byte JMPs which we padded with 5
NOPs.
Also, make the REP_GOOD version be the default as the majority of
machines set REP_GOOD. This way we get to save ourselves the JMP:
old insn VA: 0xffffffff813038b0, CPU feat: X86_FEATURE_REP_GOOD, size: 5, padlen: 0
clear_page:
ffffffff813038b0 <clear_page>:
