[PATCH v3 7/8] Implement kernel live patching for ppc64le (ABIv2)

[Torsten Duwe <duwe@lst.de>]

  * create the appropriate files+functions
    arch/powerpc/include/asm/livepatch.h
        klp_check_compiler_support,
        klp_arch_set_pc
    arch/powerpc/kernel/livepatch.c with a stub for
        klp_write_module_reloc
    This is architecture-independent work in progress.
  * introduce a fixup in arch/powerpc/kernel/entry_64.S
    for local calls that are becoming global due to live patching.
    And of course do the main KLP thing: return to a maybe different
    address, possibly altered by the live patching ftrace op.
