[PATCHv2] arm64: ftrace: fix !CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS kernels

From: mark.rutland@arm.com (Mark Rutland)
Date: 2017-06-23 17:02:06
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), function hooks (ftrace), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Steven Rostedt, Masami Hiramatsu, Linus Torvalds

When a kernel is built without CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS, we don't
generate the expected branch instruction in ftrace_make_nop(). This
means we pass zero (rather than a valid branch) to ftrace_modify_code()
as the expected instruction to validate. This causes us to return
-EINVAL to the core ftrace code for a valid case, resulting in a splat
at boot time.

This was an unintended effect of commit:

  687644209a6e9557 ("arm64: ftrace: fix building without CONFIG_MODULES")

... which incorrectly moved the generation of the branch instruction
into the ifdef for CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS.

This patch fixes the issue by moving the ifdef inside of the relevant
if-else case, and always checking that the branch is in range,
regardless of CONFIG_ARM64_MODULE_PLTS. This ensures that we generate
the expected branch instruction, and also improves our sanity checks.

For consistency, both ftrace_make_nop() and ftrace_make_call() are
updated with this pattern.
