x86/ibt: Make cfi_bhi a constant for FINEIBT_BHI=n

Robot yielded a .config that tripped:

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_jit+0x276: relocation to !ENDBR: .noinstr.text+0x6a60

This is the result of using __bhi_args[1] in unreachable code; make
sure the compiler is able to determine this is unreachable and trigger
DCE.
