When the static_key is part of the module, and the module calls
static_key_inc/enable() from it's __init section *AND* has a
static_branch_*() user in that very same __init section, things go
wobbly.
If the static_key lives outside the module, jump_label_add_module()
would append this module's sites to the key and jump_label_update()
would take the static_key_linked() branch and all would be fine.
If all the sites are outside of __init, then everything will be fine
too.
However, when all is aligned just as described above,
jump_label_update() calls __jump_label_update(.init = false) and we'll
not update sites in __init text.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
