jump_label: Annotate entries that operate on __init code earlier
Jump table entries are mostly read-only, with the exception of the init and module loader code that defuses entries that point into init code when the code being referred to is freed. For robustness, it would be better to move these entries into the ro_after_init section, but clearing the 'code' member of each jump table entry referring to init code at module load time races with the module_enable_ro() call that remaps the ro_after_init section read only, so we'd like to do it earlier. So given that whether such an entry refers to init code can be decided much earlier, we can pull this check forward. Since we may still need the code entry at this point, let's switch to setting a low bit in the 'key' member just like we do to annotate the default state of a jump table entry.
