When using CONFIG_KMALLOC_PARTITION_RANDOM, _RET_IP_ was previously used
to identify the allocation site. _RET_IP_, however, evaluates to the
caller's parent's instruction pointer rather than the actual allocation
site; this would lead to collisions where a function performs multiple
allocations.

With the generalization to kmalloc_token_t, we now generate the token at
the outermost macro, and using _THIS_IP_ would fix this for all cases.

Unfortunately, the generic implementation of _THIS_IP_ relies on taking
the address of a local label, which is considered broken by both GCC [1]
and Clang [2] because label addresses are only expected to be used with
computed gotos. While the generic version more or less works today, it
is known to be brittle. For example, Clang -O2 always returns 1 when
this function is inlined:

        static inline unsigned long get_ip(void)
        { return ({ __label__ __here; __here: (unsigned long)&&__here; }); }

To provide a reliable unique identifier without breaking architectures
relying on the generic _THIS_IP_, introduce _CODE_LOCATION_: it resolves
to _THIS_IP_ where architectures provide a safe implementation, and
falls back to a zero-cost static marker where _THIS_IP_ is broken.
