I also recently came across this problem again too. In case this helps anyone: As of Leaflet 1.0, you can use L.Tooltip instead of popups with mouseover or other mouse-related events. I've found that it works much more smoothly than making a Popup, and uses less code, especially if you're just opening the popup on hover. In your case it might look like:

function makeMarker(){
  var Marker = L.marker...
  Marker.bindTooltip('HI').openPopup();
}

And you can use the permanent boolean flag if you want to keep it open.

In my case I didn't need the popup to open on click (in addition to hover), so that might be a little more complicated. However L.Tooltip has become very widely used and there are other SO questions that deal with this issue.
