No good reason -- the intent was to preserve the old behaviour if jump
labels were not available but there is no good reason for that. I'll delete
the alternative implementation, make number_of_cpusets an inline function
and move cpusets_enabled_key into the __read_mostly section. It's untested
but the patch now looks like

---8<---
mm: page_alloc: Use jump labels to avoid checking number_of_cpusets

If cpusets are not in use then we still check a global variable on every
page allocation. Use jump labels to avoid the overhead.
