Josh Poimboeuf e55a73251d bpf: Fix ORC unwinding in non-JIT BPF code
Objtool previously ignored ___bpf_prog_run() because it didn't understand
the jump table.  This resulted in the ORC unwinder not being able to unwind
through non-JIT BPF code.

Now that objtool knows how to read jump tables, remove the whitelist and
annotate the jump table so objtool can recognize it.

Also add an additional "const" to the jump table definition to clarify that
the text pointers are constant.  Otherwise GCC sets the section writable
flag and the assembler spits out warnings.

Fixes: d15d356887 ("perf/x86: Make perf callchains work without CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
