b17c2baa30 x86: Prepare inline-asm for straight-line-speculation
Replace all ret/retq instructions with ASM_RET in preparation of
making it more than a single instruction.

c03e27506a x86/asm: Mark all top level asm statements as .text
With gcc toplevel assembler statements that do not mark themselves as .text
may end up in other sections. This causes LTO boot crashes because various
assembler statements ended up in the middle of the initcall section. It's
also a latent problem without LTO, although it's currently not known to
cause any real problems.

According to the gcc team it's expected behavior.

Always mark all the top level assembler statements as text so that they
switch to the right section.

01684e72f1 x86/error_inject: Make just_return_func() globally visible
With link time optimizations enabled, I get a link failure:

  ./ccLbOEHX.ltrans19.ltrans.o: In function `override_function_with_return':
  <artificial>:(.text+0x7f3): undefined reference to `just_return_func'

Marking the symbol .globl makes it work as expected.

540adea380 error-injection: Separate error-injection from kprobe
Since error-injection framework is not limited to be used
by kprobes, nor bpf. Other kernel subsystems can use it
freely for checking safeness of error-injection, e.g.
livepatch, ftrace etc.
So this separate error-injection framework from kprobes.

Some differences has been made:

- "kprobe" word is removed from any APIs/structures.
- BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() is renamed to
  ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() since it is not limited for BPF too.
- CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is the config item of this
  feature. It is automatically enabled if the arch supports
  error injection feature for kprobe or ftrace etc.
