[RFC PATCH 7/9] powerpc/ftrace: Add support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS

Implement support for DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS similar to the
arm64 implementation.

This works by patching-in a pointer to an associated ftrace_ops
structure before each traceable function. If multiple ftrace_ops are
associated with a call site, then a special ftrace_list_ops is used to
enable iterating over all the registered ftrace_ops. If no ftrace_ops
are associated with a call site, then a special ftrace_nop_ops structure
is used to render the ftrace call as a no-op. ftrace trampoline can then
read the associated ftrace_ops for a call site by loading from an offset
from the LR, and branch directly to the associated function.

The primary advantage with this approach is that we don't have to
iterate over all the registered ftrace_ops for call sites that have a
single ftrace_ops registered. This is the equivalent of implementing
support for dynamic ftrace trampolines, which set up a special ftrace
trampoline for each registered ftrace_ops and have individual call sites
branch into those directly.

A secondary advantage is that this gives us a way to add support for
direct ftrace callers without having to resort to using stubs. The
address of the direct call trampoline can be loaded from the ftrace_ops
structure.

To support this, we utilize the space between the existing function
profile sequence and the function entry. During ftrace activation, we
update this location with the associated ftrace_ops pointer. Then, on
ftrace entry, we load from this location and call into
ftrace_ops->func().

For 64-bit powerpc, we also select FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT_8B so that the
ftrace_ops pointer is double word aligned and can be updated atomically.
