__patch_instruction() is called in early boot, and uses __put_user_size(), which includes the allow/prevent calls to enforce KUAP, which could either be called too early, or in the Radix case, forced to use "early_" versions of functions just to safely handle this one case. __put_user_asm() does not do this, and thus is safe to use both in early boot, and later on since in this case it should only ever be touching kernel memory. __patch_instruction() was previously refactored to use __put_user_size() in order to be able to return -EFAULT, which would allow the kernel to patch instructions in userspace, which should never happen. This has the functional change of causing faults on userspace addresses if KUAP is turned on, which should never happen in practice. A future enhancement could be to double check the patch address is definitely allowed to be tampered with by the kernel.
