[PATCH v3] riscv: patch: Fixup lockdep warning in stop_machine

From: Changbin Du <changbin.du@gmail.com>

The task of ftrace_arch_code_modify(_post)_prepare() caller is
stop_machine, whose caller and work thread are of different tasks. The
lockdep checker needs the same task context, or it's wrong. That means
it's a bug here to use lockdep_assert_held because we don't guarantee
the same task context.

kernel/locking/lockdep.c:
int __lock_is_held(const struct lockdep_map *lock, int read)
{
struct task_struct *curr = current;
int i;

for (i = 0; i < curr->lockdep_depth; i++) {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
struct held_lock *hlock = curr->held_locks + i;
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
if (match_held_lock(hlock, lock)) {
if (read == -1 || !!hlock->read == read)
return LOCK_STATE_HELD;

The __lock_is_held depends on current held_locks records; if
stop_machine makes the checker runing on another task, that's wrong.

Here is the log:

By the way, this also fixes the same issue for patch_text().
