commit 97ce2c88f9ad42e3c60a9beb9fca87abf3639faa breaks MIPS.

The jump-lable initialization does I-Cache flushing after modifying
code.  On MIPS this is done by calling through the function pointer
flush_icache_range().  This function pointer is initialized mm_init().

Actually I misspoke, for MIPS we need jump_label_init() after trap_init(), not mm_init().


As things stand, we cannot be calling jump_label_init() until after
mm_init() completes, so we move the call down to satisfy this
constraint.

I'm fine as long as it stays before sched_init(), which it does. Jeremy
is this still early enough for you?


Just tested a revised patch that moves it to between trap_init() and mm_init(), I propose that we do that instead.

New patch in a couple of minutes.
