[ Upstream commit a6253579977e4c6f7818eeb05bf2bc65678a7187 ]

Sometimes it is necessary to use a PLT entry to call an ftrace
trampoline. This is handled by ftrace_make_call() and ftrace_make_nop(),
with each having *almost* identical logic, but this is not handled by
ftrace_modify_call() since its introduction in commit:

3b23e4991fb66f6d ("arm64: implement ftrace with regs")

Due to this, if we ever were to call ftrace_modify_call() for a callsite
which requires a PLT entry for a trampoline, then either:

a) If the old addr requires a trampoline, ftrace_modify_call() will use
an out-of-range address to generate the 'old' branch instruction.
This will result in warnings from aarch64_insn_gen_branch_imm() and
ftrace_modify_code(), and no instructions will be modified. As
ftrace_modify_call() will return an error, this will result in
subsequent internal ftrace errors.

b) If the old addr does not require a trampoline, but the new addr does,
ftrace_modify_call() will use an out-of-range address to generate the
'new' branch instruction. This will result in warnings from
aarch64_insn_gen_branch_imm(), and ftrace_modify_code() will replace
the 'old' branch with a BRK. This will result in a kernel panic when
this BRK is later executed.

Practically speaking, case (a) is vastly more likely than case (b), and
typically this will result in internal ftrace errors that don't
necessarily affect the rest of the system. This can be demonstrated with
an out-of-tree test module which triggers ftrace_modify_call(), e.g.

We can solve this by consistently determining whether to use a PLT entry
for an address.

Note that since (the earlier) commit:

f1a54ae9af0da4d7 ("arm64: module/ftrace: intialize PLT at load time")

... we can consistently determine the PLT address that a given callsite
will use, and therefore ftrace_make_nop() does not need to skip
validation when a PLT is in use.

This patch factors the existing logic out of ftrace_make_call() and
ftrace_make_nop() into a common ftrace_find_callable_addr() helper
function, which is used by ftrace_make_call(), ftrace_make_nop(), and
ftrace_modify_call(). In ftrace_make_nop() the patching is consistently
validated by ftrace_modify_code() as we can always determine what the
old instruction should have been.
