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.
