History
Ingo Molnar f8e92fb4b0 A more involved rework of the alternatives framework to be able to 
pad instructions and thus make using the alternatives macros more
 straightforward and without having to figure out old and new instruction
 sizes but have the toolchain figure that out for us.
 
 Furthermore, it optimizes JMPs used so that fetch and decode can be
 relieved with smaller versions of the JMPs, where possible.
 
 Some stats:
 
 x86_64 defconfig:
 
 Alternatives sites total:               2478
 Total padding added (in Bytes):         6051
 
 The padding is currently done for:
 
 X86_FEATURE_ALWAYS
 X86_FEATURE_ERMS
 X86_FEATURE_LFENCE_RDTSC
 X86_FEATURE_MFENCE_RDTSC
 X86_FEATURE_SMAP
 
 This is with the latest version of the patchset. Of course, on each
 machine the alternatives sites actually being patched are a proper
 subset of the total number.
