Move the logic to work out the kernel toc pointer into a header. This is
a good cleanup, and also means we can use it elsewhere in future.

Thanks Michael; this is an excellent basis for ppc live patching, but FYI
I am not merging that one to my tree just yet.

Yeah OK.

The solution (*) for functions with non-trivial argument list is not there
yet, and it's my requirement for this to be taken care of in a way that's
not prone to easily-done human errors on the patch-producer side.

Sure. I'll try and get something working, though this merge window is not
starting well so I may not get time for a few weeks :)

cheers
