TI AR7 has larger physical offsets than other MIPS-based
systems. A long jump to the target is required instead of
a short jump like on other systems.

I had to do a similar change for my mapped kernel patch. However in mine, I used uasm. I wonder if the extra memory occupied by uasm is too steep a penalty to pay for the ability to use it outside of __init code. If not, we should move uasm out of __init and use it instead of this manual assembly.
