[PATCH v2] ARM: move __kuser_cmpxchg{32,64} into .kprobes.text

[Arnd Bergmann]

When kprobes is used, most of the entry-armv.S file is put into the .kprobes.text
section rather than .text, but the kuser_cmpxchg64_fixup and kuser_cmpxchg32_fixup
code is not, which can lead to a link error when extremely large kernels get
built (typically for randconfig):

arch/arm/kernel/built-in.o: In function `__dabt_usr':
:(.kprobes.text+0x47c): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_JUMP24 against `.text'
arch/arm/kernel/built-in.o: In function `__irq_usr':
:(.kprobes.text+0x4e4): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_JUMP24 against `.text'
arch/arm/kernel/built-in.o: In function `__fiq_usr':
:(.kprobes.text+0x740): relocation truncated to fit: R_ARM_JUMP24 against `.text'

This moves the two remaining functions into the same section as the rest
using a new macro suggested by Nicolas Pitre, which avoids the link error.

The current behavior has existed for many years and has not caused problems in
practice except for extreme randconfig builds, so the patch should not need to
get backported.
