Implement inline static calls:
- Put a 'bl' to the destination function ('b' if tail call)
- Put a 'nop' when the destination function is NULL ('blr' if tail call)
- Put a 'li r3,0' when the destination is the RET0 function and not
a tail call.
If the destination is too far (over the 32Mb limit), go via the
trampoline.

Reorganise arch_static_call_transform() in order to ease the support
of inline static calls in following patch:
- remove 'target' to nhide whether it is a 'return 0' or not.
- Don't bail out if 'tramp' is NULL, just do nothing until next patch.
Note that 'target' was 'tramp + PPC_SCT_RET0', is_short was perforce
true. So in the 'if (func && !is_short)' leg, target was perforce
equal to 'func'.

Several architectures support text patching, but they name the header
files that declare patching functions differently.
Make all such headers consistently named text-patching.h and add an empty
header in asm-generic for architectures that do not support text patching.

These changes are for patch_instruction() uses on data. Unlike ppc64
these should not be incorrect as-is, but using the patch_uint() alias
better reflects what kind of data being patched and allows for
benchmarking the effect of different patch_* implementations (e.g.,
skipping instruction flushing when patching data).

Add support for out-of-line static calls on PPC32. This change
improve performance of calls to global function pointers by
using direct calls instead of indirect calls.
The trampoline is initialy populated with a 'blr' or branch to target,
followed by an unreachable long jump sequence.
In order to cater with parallele execution, the trampoline needs to
be updated in a way that ensures it remains consistent at all time.
This means we can't use the traditional lis/addi to load r12 with
the target address, otherwise there would be a window during which
the first instruction contains the upper part of the new target
address while the second instruction still contains the lower part of
the old target address. To avoid that the target address is stored
just after the 'bctr' and loaded from there with a single instruction.
Then, depending on the target distance, arch_static_call_transform()
will either replace the first instruction by a direct 'bl <target>' or
'nop' in order to have the trampoline fall through the long jump
sequence.
For the special case of __static_call_return0(), to avoid the risk of
a far branch, a version of it is inlined at the end of the trampoline.
Performancewise the long jump sequence is probably not better than
the indirect calls set by GCC when we don't use static calls, but
such calls are unlikely to be required on powerpc32: With most
configurations the kernel size is far below 32 Mbytes so only
modules may happen to be too far. And even modules are likely to
be close enough as they are allocated below the kernel core and
as close as possible of the kernel text.
static_call selftest is running successfully with this change.
With this patch, __do_irq() has the following sequence to trace
irq entries:

Behind the fact of now using a direct 'bl' instead of a
'load/mtctr/bctr' sequence, we can also see that we get one less
register on the stack.
