[PATCH 2/3] arm64: use alternative auto-nop
Mark Rutland

Wed Sep 7 03:07:09 PDT 2016
Make use of the new alternative_if and alternative_else_nop_endif and
get rid of our homebew NOP sleds, making the code simpler to read.
Note that for cpu_do_switch_mm the ret has been moved out of the
alternative sequence, and in the default case there will be three
additional NOPs executed.
