x86/alternatives: Teach text_poke_bp() to emulate instructions
In preparation for static_call and variable size jump_label support, teach text_poke_bp() to emulate instructions, namely: JMP32, JMP8, CALL, NOP2, NOP_ATOMIC5, INT3 The current text_poke_bp() takes a @handler argument which is used as a jump target when the temporary INT3 is hit by a different CPU. When patching CALL instructions, this doesn't work because we'd miss the PUSH of the return address. Instead, teach poke_int3_handler() to emulate an instruction, typically the instruction we're patching in. This fits almost all text_poke_bp() users, except arch_unoptimize_kprobe() which restores random text, and for that site we have to build an explicit emulate instruction.
