commit 8f5f525d5b83f7d76a6baf9c4e94d4bf312ea7f6 upstream.
When the kernel is compiled to use 64bit ABIv2 the _GLOBAL() macro does
not include a global entry point. A function's global entry point is
used when the function is called from a different TOC context and in the
kernel this typically means a call from a module into the vmlinux (or
vice-versa).
There are a few exported asm functions declared with _GLOBAL() and
calling them from a module will likely crash the kernel since any TOC
relative load will yield garbage.
flush_icache_range() and flush_dcache_range() are both exported to
modules, and use the TOC, so must use _GLOBAL_TOC().
[mpe: We can't use _GLOBAL_TOC() in 4.4 for flush_icache_range() because
the function needs to be in the .kprobes.text section, which is done by the
_KPROBE() macro. So we have to add a _KPROBE_TOC() macro, which does the TOC
setup and also puts the function in the .kprobes.text section]
