ARM: 7334/1: add jump label support
Add the arch-specific code to support jump labels for ARM and Thumb-2. This code will only be activated on compilers that are capable of building it. It has been tested with GCC 4.6 patched with the patch from GCC bug 48637. Cc: Jason Baron <jbaron@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rabin Vincent <rabin@rab.in> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
