Use the mapping of Elf_[SPE]hdr, Elf_Addr, Elf_Sym, Elf_Dyn, Elf_Rel/Rela,
ELF_R_TYPE() and ELF_R_SYM() to either the 32-bit version or the 64-bit version
into asm-generic/module.h for all arches bar MIPS.
Also, use the generic definition mod_arch_specific where possible.
To this end, I've defined three new config bools:
(*) HAVE_MOD_ARCH_SPECIFIC
Arches define this if they don't want to use the empty generic
mod_arch_specific struct.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
Arches define this if their modules can contain RELA records. This causes
the Elf_Rela mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate_add() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
(*) MODULES_USE_ELF_REL
Arches define this if their modules can contain REL records. This causes
the Elf_Rel mapping to be emitted and allows apply_relocate() to be
defined by the arch rather than have the core emit an error message.
Note that it is possible to allow both REL and RELA records: m68k and mips are
two arches that do this.
With this, some arch asm/module.h files can be deleted entirely and replaced
with a generic-y marker in the arch Kbuild file.
Additionally, I have removed the bits from m32r and score that handle the
unsupported type of relocation record as that's now handled centrally.

powerpc applies relocations to the kcrctab. They're absolute symbols,
but it's not completely unreasonable: other archs may too, but the
relocation is often 0.

Impact: add ability to trace modules on 32 bit PowerPC
This patch performs the necessary trampoline calls to handle
modules with dynamic ftrace on 32 bit PowerPC.

Impact: Allow 64 bit PowerPC to trace modules with dynamic ftrace
This adds code to handle the PPC64 module trampolines, and allows for
PPC64 to use dynamic ftrace.
Thanks to Paul Mackerras for these updates:
- fix the mod and rec->arch.mod NULL checks.
- fix to is_bl_op compare.
Thanks to Milton Miller for:
- finding the nasty race with using two nops, and recommending
instead that I use a branch 8 forward.

from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a
mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm
Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
