In discussion on LKML (https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/11/28/158), Russell
King suggests to move all probe related code to arch/arm/probes. This
patch does the work. Due to dependency on 'arch/arm/kernel/patch.h', this
patch also moves patch.h to 'arch/arm/include/asm/patch.h', and related
'#include' directives are also midified to '#include <asm/patch.h>'.
Following is an overview of this patch:

When compiling kprobes-test-arm.c the following error has been observed
/tmp/ccoT403o.s:21439: Error: bad immediate value for offset (4168)
This is caused by the compiler spilling it's literal pool too far away
from the site which is trying to reference it with a PC relative load.
This arises because the compiler is underestimating the size of the
inline assembler code present, which apparently it approximates as 4
bytes per line or instruction.
We fix this problem by moving the operations which generate more than
4 bytes out of the text section. Specifically, moving the .ascii
directives to the .rodata section.

Due to a long-standing issue with Thumb symbol lookup [1] the jprobes
tests fail when built into a kernel compiled as Thumb mode. (They work
fine for ARM mode kernels or for Thumb when built as a loadable module.)
Rather than have this problem terminate testing prematurely lets instead
emit an error message and carry on with the main kprobes tests, delaying
the final failure report until the end.

By default if no fill symbol is given to .align directive in a code
section it fills gap with NOPs. If previous fragment is not
instruction-aligned, additional pre-alignment is done by zero bytes
before NOPs. These zero bytes are marked as data by special symbol $d in
symbol table. Unfortunately GAS assumes that there is only code in the
code section so it "puts back" code symbol $a at the end of this
pre-alignment. So if there is some data after alignment it will be
interpreted as code and will be swapped back to LE for BE8 system during
a final linking.
If explicit fill value is given to .align, the NOP-padding code is
skipped and symbol table does not get messed-up.
So the workaround for this issue:
Use explicit fill value if data should be aligned in the code section.

Ensure we read instructions in the correct endian-ness by using
the <asm/opcodes.h> helper to transform them as necessary.

Any more ARM kprobes/uprobes symbols which have "kprobe" in the name must be
changed to the more generic "probes" or other non-kprobes specific symbol.

This patch changes the kprobes implementation to use the generic ARM
instruction set condition code checks, rather than a dedicated
implementation.

On ARM we have to simulate/emulate CPU instructions in order to
singlestep them. This patch adds a framework which can be used to
construct test cases for different instruction forms. It is described in
detail in the in-source comments of kprobes-test.c
