I think the issue here is that arm64 doesn't initialize static keys
early enough.

init/main.c has the general case:

asmlinkage __visible void __init start_kernel(void)
{
        ...
        setup_arch(&command_line);
        ...
        smp_prepare_boot_cpu();
        ...
        /* parameters may set static keys */
        jump_label_init();
        parse_early_param();
        ...
}

however, x86 does even earlier early params in setup_arch():

void __init setup_arch(char **cmdline_p)
{
        ...
        jump_label_init();
        ...
        parse_early_param();
        ...
}

arm64 does similar very early early params in setup_arch()[1] too,
but not jump_label_init() which is too late in smp_prepare_boot_cpu():

void __init setup_arch(char **cmdline_p)
{
        ...
        parse_early_param();
        ...
}

void __init smp_prepare_boot_cpu(void)
{
        ...
        jump_label_init();
        ...
}

I can send a patch to fix this...
