[PATCH 1/3] powerpc: kprobes: fix handling of function offsets on ABIv2

commit 239aeba76409 ("perf powerpc: Fix kprobe and kretprobe handling
with kallsyms on ppc64le") changed how we use the offset field in struct
kprobe on ABIv2. perf now offsets from the GEP (Global entry point) if an
offset is specified and otherwise chooses the LEP (Local entry point).

Fix the same in kernel for kprobe API users. We do this by extending
kprobe_lookup_name() to accept an additional parameter to indicate the
offset specified with the kprobe registration. If offset is 0, we return
the local function entry and return the global entry point otherwise.

With:
	# cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/
	# echo "p _do_fork" >> kprobe_events
	# echo "p _do_fork+0x10" >> kprobe_events

before this patch:
	# cat ../kprobes/list
	c0000000000d0748  k  _do_fork+0x8    [DISABLED]
	c0000000000d0758  k  _do_fork+0x18    [DISABLED]
	c0000000000412b0  k  kretprobe_trampoline+0x0    [OPTIMIZED]

and after:
	# cat ../kprobes/list
	c0000000000d04c8  k  _do_fork+0x8    [DISABLED]
	c0000000000d04d0  k  _do_fork+0x10    [DISABLED]
	c0000000000412b0  k  kretprobe_trampoline+0x0    [OPTIMIZED]
