arch: Introduce CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT
Generic function-alignment infrastructure. Architectures can select FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT_xxB symbols; the FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT symbol is then set to the largest such selected size, 0 otherwise. From this the -falign-functions compiler argument and __ALIGN macro are set. This incorporates the DEBUG_FORCE_FUNCTION_ALIGN_64B knob and future alignment requirements for x86_64 (later in this series) into a single place. NOTE: also removes the 0x90 filler byte from the generic __ALIGN primitive, that value makes no sense outside of x86. NOTE: .balign 0 reverts to a no-op. Requested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220915111143.719248727@infradead.org
