Rust static branch support needs the s390 jump label instruction sequence
and __jump_table emission in a reusable form. The current implementation
embeds the sequence directly in the C asm goto blocks, which cannot be
shared with Rust.
Introduce ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH_ASM and ARCH_STATIC_BRANCH_JUMP_ASM to
describe the brcl sequences for the likely-false and likely-true cases
and to emit the same __jump_table entries as before. Switch the existing
C helpers to use the new macros to avoid duplication without changing
the generated code.

The comment looks out of place now, you probably want to move
ARCH_JUMP_TABLE_ENTRY above it.
Best,

Hi Gary,
good catch, thanks. I’ll move ARCH_JUMP_TABLE_ENTRY above the comment.
