Hi,

This is a series of patches to fix kprobes issues on the
kernel with CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y.

- [1/3]: This introduces __x86_indirect_thunk_* boundary
	 symbols so that kprobes easily identify those functions.
- [2/3]: Mark __x86_indirect_thunk_* as blacklisted function
	 for kprobes, since it can be called from other
	 blacklisted functions.
- [3/3]: Check jmp instructions in the probe target function
	 whether it jumps into the __x86_indirect_thunk_*,
	 because it is equal to an indirect jump instruction.

Side effect: [1/3] will move __x86_indirect_thunk_* functions
in kernel text area. Of course those functions were in the
.text area, but placed in right after _etext. This just moves
it right before the _etext.

Thank you,

---
