From: Abhishek Dubey <adubey at linux.ibm.com>

On loading the BPF program, the verifier might adjust/omit some
instructions. The adjusted instruction offset is accounted in the
map containing original instruction -> xlated mapping. This patch
add ppc64 JIT support to additionally build the xlated->jitted
mapping for every instruction present in instruction array. This
change is needed to enable support for indirect jumps, added in a
subsequent patch.

Invoke bpf_prog_update_insn_ptrs() with offset pair of xlated_offset
and jited_offset. The offset mapping is already available, which is
being used for bpf_prog_fill_jited_linfo() and can be directly used
for bpf_prog_update_insn_ptrs() as well.

Additional details present at:

commit b4ce5923e780 ("bpf, x86: add new map type: instructions array")
