[PATCH bpf-next v6 1/2] arm64: patching: implement text_poke API

From: Puranjay Mohan
Date: Wed Jan 24 2024 - 11:50:26 EST


The text_poke API is used to implement functions like memcpy() and
memset() for instruction memory (RO+X). The implementation is similar to
the x86 version.

This will be used by the BPF JIT to write and modify BPF programs. There
could be more users of this in the future.
