[RFC][PATCH 6/8] jump_label, x86: Add variable length patching support

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Fri Jun 28 2019 - 09:36:22 EST


This allows the patching to to emit 2 byte JMP/NOP instruction in
addition to the 5 byte JMP/NOP we already did. This allows for more
compact code.

This code is not yet used, as we don't emit shorter code at compile
time yet.
