context_tracking: Ensure that the critical path cannot be instrumented
context tracking lacks a few protection mechanisms against instrumentation:
- While the core functions are marked NOKPROBE they lack protection
against function tracing which is required as the function entry/exit
points can be utilized by BPF.
- static functions invoked from the protected functions need to be marked
as well as they can be instrumented otherwise.
- using plain inline allows the compiler to emit traceable and probable
functions.
Fix this by marking the functions noinstr and converting the plain inlines
to __always_inline.
The NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() annotations are removed as the .noinstr.text section
is already excluded from being probed.
Cures the following objtool warnings:
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: enter_from_user_mode()+0x34: call to __context_tracking_exit() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: prepare_exit_to_usermode()+0x29: call to __context_tracking_enter() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: syscall_return_slowpath()+0x29: call to __context_tracking_enter() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_syscall_64()+0x7f: call to __context_tracking_enter() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_int80_syscall_32()+0x3d: call to __context_tracking_enter() leaves .noinstr.text section
vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: do_fast_syscall_32()+0x9c: call to __context_tracking_enter() leaves .noinstr.text section
and generates new ones...
