Since commite501ce957a("x86: Force asm-goto"), aarch64 build on distributions which enable PIE by default (e.g. openSUSE Tumbleweed) does not detect support for asm goto correctly. The problem is that ARM specific part of scripts/gcc-goto.sh fails with PIE even with recent gcc versions. Moving the asm goto detection up in Makefile put it before the place where we disable PIE. As a result, kernel is built without jump label support. Move the lines disabling PIE before the asm goto test to make it work.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
