Support for LSE atomic instructions (CONFIG_ARM64_LSE_ATOMICS) relies on
a static key to select between the legacy LL/SC implementation which is
available on all arm64 CPUs and the super-duper LSE implementation which
is available on CPUs implementing v8.1 and later.
Unfortunately, when building a kernel with CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL disabled
(e.g. because the toolchain doesn't support 'asm goto'), the static key
inside the atomics code tries to use atomics itself. This results in a
mess of circular includes and a build failure:

Since LSE atomic instructions are not critical to the operation of the
kernel, make them depend on JUMP_LABEL at compile time.
