objtool now warns about it:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: enter_from_user_mode+0x4e: Non __ro_after_init static key "context_tracking_key" in .noinstr section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: enter_from_user_mode+0x50: Non __ro_after_init static key "context_tracking_key" in .noinstr section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: syscall_enter_from_user_mode+0x60: Non __ro_after_init static key "context_tracking_key" in .noinstr section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: syscall_enter_from_user_mode+0x62: Non __ro_after_init static key "context_tracking_key" in .noinstr section
[...]
The key can only be enabled (and not disabled) in the __init function
ct_cpu_tracker_user(), so mark it as __ro_after_init.
