bpf: Move bpf_dispatcher function out of ftrace locations
The dispatcher function is attached/detached to trampoline by
dispatcher update function. At the same time it's available as
ftrace attachable function.
After discussion [1] the proposed solution is to use compiler
attributes to alter bpf_dispatcher_##name##_func function:
- remove it from being instrumented with __no_instrument_function__
attribute, so ftrace has no track of it
- but still generate 5 nop instructions with patchable_function_entry(5)
attribute, which are expected by bpf_arch_text_poke used by
dispatcher update function
Enabling HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_NO_PATCHABLE option for x86, so
__patchable_function_entries functions are not part of ftrace/mcount
locations.
Adding attributes to bpf_dispatcher_XXX function on x86_64 so it's
kept out of ftrace locations and has 5 byte nop generated at entry.
These attributes need to be arch specific as pointed out by Ilya
Leoshkevic in here [2].
The dispatcher image is generated only for x86_64 arch, so the
code can stay as is for other archs.
