commit 07e8481d3c38f461d7b79c1d5c9afe013b162b0c upstream.
Regardless of KFENCE mode (CONFIG_KFENCE_STATIC_KEYS: either using static keys to gate allocations, or using a simple dynamic branch), always use a static branch to avoid the dynamic branch in kfence_alloc() if KFENCE was disabled at boot.
For CONFIG_KFENCE_STATIC_KEYS=n, this now avoids the dynamic branch if KFENCE was disabled at boot.
To simplify, also unifies the location where kfence_allocation_gate is read-checked to just be inline in kfence_alloc().
