[RFC PATCH bpf-next v2 1/4] bpf: Rollback to text_poke when arch not supported ftrace direct call

[Pu Lehui]

From: Pu Lehui <pulehui at huawei.com>

The current bpf trampoline attach to kernel functions via ftrace direct
call API, while text_poke is applied for bpf2bpf attach and tail call
optimization. For architectures that do not support ftrace direct call,
text_poke is still able to attach bpf trampoline to kernel functions.
Let's relax it by rollback to text_poke when architecture not supported.
