arm: Disable jump-label on PREEMPT_RT.

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2060704

jump-labels are used to efficiently switch between two possible code
paths. To achieve this, stop_machine() is used to keep the CPU in a
known state while the opcode is modified. The usage of stop_machine()
here leads to large latency spikes which can be observed on PREEMPT_RT.

Jump labels may change the target during runtime and are not restricted
to debug or "configuration/ setup" part of a PREEMPT_RT system where
high latencies could be defined as acceptable.

Disable jump-label support on a PREEMPT_RT system.
