x86/ibt: Make cfi_bhi a constant for FINEIBT_BHI=n
Robot yielded a .config that tripped: vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_jit+0x276: relocation to !ENDBR: .noinstr.text+0x6a60 This is the result of using __bhi_args[1] in unreachable code; make sure the compiler is able to determine this is unreachable and trigger DCE.
