The intent is to avoid writing init code after init (because the text might have been freed). The code is needlessly different between jump_label and static_call and not obviously correct. The existing code relies on the fact that the module loader clears the init layout, such that within_module_init() always fails, while jump_label relies on the module state which is more obvious and matches the kernel logic.

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.
