Commit 51c3c62b58b3 ("powerpc: Avoid code patching freed init sections") accesses 'init_mem_is_free' flag too early, before the kernel is relocated. This provokes early boot failure (before the console is active).
As it is not necessary to do this verification that early, this patch moves the test into patch_instruction() instead of __patch_instruction().
This modification also has the advantage of avoiding unnecessary remappings.
