[PATCH 1/2] bpf: Revert ("Fix dispatcher patchable function entry to 5 bytes nop")

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Thu Nov 03 2022 - 08:09:44 EST


Because __attribute__((patchable_function_entry)) is only available
since GCC-8 this solution fails to build on the minimum required GCC
version.

Undo these changes so we might try again -- without cluttering up the
patches with too many changes.

This is an almost complete revert of:

dbe69b299884 ("bpf: Fix dispatcher patchable function entry to 5 bytes nop")
ceea991a019c ("bpf: Move bpf_dispatcher function out of ftrace locations")

(notably the arch/x86/Kconfig hunk is kept).
