kprobes/x86-32: Move irq-exit functions to kprobes section
Move irq-exit functions to .kprobes.text section to protect against
kprobes recursion.
When I ran kprobe stress test on x86-32, I found below symbols
cause unrecoverable recursive probing:
ret_from_exception
ret_from_intr
check_userspace
restore_all
restore_all_notrace
restore_nocheck
irq_return
And also, I found some interrupt/exception entry points that
cause similar problems.
This patch moves those symbols (including their container functions)
to .kprobes.text section to prevent any kprobes probing.
