Linux kernel source tree

Add text patching api's to use in subsequent jump_label implementation. We use a new fixmap FIX_TEXT_POKE0 entry to temporarily override MMU mappings to allow read only text pages to be written to. Previously, __set_fix was marked with __init as it was only used during the EARLYCON stage. Now that TEXT_POKE mappings require post-init usage (e.g., FIX_TEXT_POKE0), keeping __init would cause runtime bugs whenset_fixmap accesses invalid memory. Thus, we remove the __init flag to ensure __set_fix remains valid beyond initialization. A new function patch_insn_write is exposed to allow single instruction patching.

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 reStructuredText 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.
