Here are a few changes to minimize calls to stop_machine() and
flush_icache_*() in the various text patching functions, as well as
to simplify the code.
This series is based on "[PATCH v3 0/2] riscv: fix patching with IPI"[1].

Changes in v2:
- Remove unnecessary line wrapping

- Use min() instead of min_t() since both sides are unsigned long
