x86/alternatives: Prevent uninitialized stack byte read in apply_alternatives()

x86/alternatives: Prevent uninitialized stack byte read in apply_alternatives()

In the current form of the code, if a->replacementlen is 0, the reference
to *insnbuf for comparison touches potentially garbage memory. While it
doesn't affect the execution flow due to the subsequent a->replacementlen
comparison, it is (rightly) detected as use of uninitialized memory by a
runtime instrumentation currently under my development, and could be
detected as such by other tools in the future, too (e.g. KMSAN).

Fix the "false-positive" by reordering the conditions to first check the
replacement instruction length before referencing specific opcode bytes.
