After commit2decad92f4("arm64: mte: Ensure TIF_MTE_ASYNC_FAULT is set atomically"), LLVM's integrated assembler fails to build entry.S: <instantiation>:5:7: error: expected assembly-time absolute expression .org . - (664b-663b) + (662b-661b) ^ <instantiation>:6:7: error: expected assembly-time absolute expression .org . - (662b-661b) + (664b-663b) ^ The root cause is LLVM's assembler has a one-pass design, meaning it cannot figure out these instruction lengths when the .org directive is outside of the subsection that they are in, which was changed by the .arch_extension directive added in the above commit. Apply the same fix from commit966a0acce2("arm64/alternatives: move length validation inside the subsection") to the alternative_endif macro, shuffling the .org directives so that the length validation happen will always happen in the same subsections. alternative_insn has not shown any issue yet but it appears that it could have the same issue in the future so just preemptively change it.

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.
