So that weird .rodata entry is optprobe_template_func.

It being in .rodata also means it's not validated and there is no ORC
data generated, is that all intentional? The changelog for:

877b145f0f47 ("x86/kprobes: Move trampoline code into RODATA")

doesn't really say anything useful about any of that :/

I also don't see any kprobe/optprobe hooks in unwind.h, so what happens
if we hit an optprobe?
