powerpc/kvm: Move kvm_tmp into .text, shrink to 64K
In some configurations of KVM, guests binary patch themselves to
avoid/reduce trapping into the hypervisor. For some instructions this
requires replacing one instruction with a sequence of instructions.
For those cases we need to write the sequence of instructions
somewhere and then patch the location of the original instruction to
branch to the sequence. That requires that the location of the
sequence be within 32MB of the original instruction.
The current solution for this is that we create a 1MB array in BSS,
write sequences into there, and then free the remainder of the array.
This has a few problems:
- it confuses kmemleak.
- it confuses lockdep.
- it requires mapping kvm_tmp executable, which can cause adjacent
areas to also be mapped executable if we're using 16M pages for the
linear mapping.
- the 32MB limit can be exceeded if the kernel is big enough,
especially with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX enabled, which then prevents the
patching from working at all.
We can fix all those problems by making kvm_tmp just a region of
regular .text. However currently it's 1MB in size, and we don't want
to waste 1MB of text. In practice however I only see ~30KB of kvm_tmp
being used even for an allyes_config. So shrink kvm_tmp to 64K, which
ought to be enough for everyone, and move it into .text.
