[RFC V2 00/16] objtool: Add support for Arm64

[Raphael Gault]

As of now, objtool only supports the x86_64 architecture but the
groundwork has already been done in order to add support for other
architectures without too much effort.

This series of patches adds support for the arm64 architecture
based on the Armv8.5 Architecture Reference Manual.

Objtool will be a valuable tool to progress and provide more guarentees
on live patching which is a work in progress for arm64.

Once we have the base of objtool working the next steps will be to
port Peter Z's uaccess validation for arm64.

RFC: In order to differentiate the different uses of the `brk`
instruction on arm64 I intended to use the
`include/generated/asm-offsets.h` header file (copying it to
tools/include/generated/asm-offsets.h). However since in is
generated later than objtool in the build process I wasn't able to do
it. I wanted to use it to have access to the info about the
`struct alt_instr` and `struct bug_entry`.

Noteworthy points:
* I still haven't figured out how to detect switch-tables on arm64. I
have a better understanding of them but still haven't implemented checks
as it doesn't look trivial at all.
* I still use the `arch_is_sibling_call` function to differentiate the
use cases of the `br` instruction on arm64. Even though I updated the
checks, it is still based on going back in the instruction stream, which
as Peter Z. pointed out is not safe. I shall work on an alternative
solution.

Changes from V2:
* Rebase on the -tip tree (which contains the latest objtool features)
* Split into more precise patches in order to highlight the changes
that were made.
* Correct patches coding style to comply with linux's style.
* Refactor some code to avoid generating a fake instruction when
decoding load/store of pairs of registers.
* Make more elegant checks for arch-dependent features (switch-tables,
special sections)
* Include some patches to add exceptions in the kernel to prevent
objtool from checking/warning in particular cases.
* Introduce a new instruction type (INSN_UNKNOWN) to handle the cases
when some data is stored inside a section marked as containing
executable instructions.
