[PATCH v2 tip/master 1/3] retpoline: Introduce start/end markers of indirect thunk

[Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>]

Introduce start/end markers of __x86_indirect_thunk_* functions.
To make it easy, consolidate .text.__x86.indirect_thunk.* sections
to one .text.__x86.indirect_thunk section and put it in the
end of kernel text section and adds __indirect_thunk_start/end
so that other subsystem (e.g. kprobes) can identify it.

  Changes in v2:
   - Consolidate .text.__x86.indirect_thunk.* sections to
     one .text.__x86.indirect_thunk section. (Thanks David!)
