Hi Will,
Thanks for review.
Will change it to "aarch64_insn_encoding_class.

Good point. Still need some synchronization mechanism lighter than
stop_machine(). How about kick_all_cpus_sync(), which should be lighter
than stop_machine()?

Yeah, should be safe for jump label because it only uses unconditional
B and NOP.
