      arm64: add module support for alternatives fixups · 932ded4b
      Andre Przywara 提交于
      Currently the kernel patches all necessary instructions once at boot
      time, so modules are not covered by this.
      Change the apply_alternatives() function to take a beginning and an
      end pointer and introduce a new variant (apply_alternatives_all()) to
      cover the existing use case for the static kernel image section.
      Add a module_finalize() function to arm64 to check for an
      alternatives section in a module and patch only the instructions from
      that specific area.
      Since that module code is not touched before the module
      initialization has ended, we don't need to halt the machine before
      doing the patching in the module's code.
