Running `make rusttest` with `ARCH=` set to an architecture other than
the host's may fail in the future, e.g. `ARCH=arm64` on an x86_64 host:
error: alignment must be a power of 2

The reason is that `rusttest` builds the kernel crate as a host
library: it passes the `CONFIG_*` cfgs of the configured architecture,
but not `--target`, so code generation happens for the
host. `arch_static_branch!` then selects the arch-specific inline asm
arm based on CONFIG_*, and the host assembler rejects it.
This does not happen with the current master because
`arch_static_branch!` has no user inside the kernel crate itself yet,
but fix it now to avoid surprises later.
