[patch] i386: entry.s::error_code is not safe for kprobes

[Chuck Ebbert]

Because code marked unsafe for kprobes jumps directly to
entry.S::error_code, that must be marked unsafe as well.
The easiest way to do that is to move the page fault entry
point to just before error_code and let it inherit the same
section.

Also moved all the ".previous" asm directives for kprobes
sections to column 1 and removed ".text" from them.

x86_64 also has this problem but I wasn't sure whether to move
error_entry into .kprobes.text or convert offendors to the
"paranoid" infrastructure.
