[PATCH bpf-next v4 3/4] bpf, x86: Emit ENDBR for indirect jump targets

From: Xu Kuohai <xukuohai at huawei.com>

On CPUs that support CET/IBT, the indirect jump selftest triggers
a kernel panic because the indirect jump targets lack ENDBR
instructions.

To fix it, emit an ENDBR instruction to each indirect jump target. Since
the ENDBR instruction shifts the position of original jited instructions,
fix the instruction address calculation wherever the addresses are used.

For reference, below is a sample panic log.

 Missing ENDBR: bpf_prog_2e5f1c71c13ac3e0_big_jump_table+0x97/0xe1

 kernel BUG at arch/x86/kernel/cet.c:133!
