arm64: kernel: Add optional CONFIG_ parameter to ALTERNATIVE()
Some uses of ALTERNATIVE() may depend on a feature that is disabled at
compile time by a Kconfig option. In this case the unused alternative
instructions waste space, and if the original instruction is a nop, it
wastes time and space.
This patch adds an optional 'config' option to ALTERNATIVE() and
alternative_insn that allows the compiler to remove both the original
and alternative instructions if the config option is not defined.
