[PATCH v4 10/16] x86/alternative: Shrink text_poke_loc

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Fri Oct 18 2019 - 03:53:12 EST


Employ the fact that all text must be within a s32 displacement of one
another to shrink the text_poke_loc::addr field. Make it relative to
_stext.

This then shrinks struct text_poke_loc to 16 bytes, and consequently
increases TP_VEC_MAX from 170 to 256.
