[PATCHv2 3/7] arm64: move non-entry code out of .entry.text

Wed Jul 26 11:18:26 PDT 2017
Currently, cpu_switch_to and ret_from_fork both live in .entry.text,
though neither form the critical path for an exception entry.
In subsequent patches, we will require that code in .entry.text is part
of the critical path for exception entry, for which we can assume
certain properties (e.g. the presence of exception regs on the stack).
Neither cpu_switch_to nor ret_from_fork will meet these requirements, so
we must most them out of .entry.text. To ensure that neither are kprobed
after being moved out of .entry.text, we must explicitly blacklist them,
requiring a new NOKPROBE() asm helper.
