similar to: [PATCH] x86-64: use RIP-relative calls for paravirt indirect ones

This reverts commit 494b5168f2de009eb80f198f668da374295098dd. The in-kernel workarounds will be replaced with GCC's new "asm inline" syntax.

if PIE is enabled, switch the paravirt assembly constraints to be compatible. The %c/i constrains generate smaller code so is kept by default. Position Independent Executable (PIE) support will allow to extend the KASLR randomization range below 0xffffffff80000000.

Revert the following 9 commits: [1] 5bdcd510c2ac ("x86/jump-labels: Macrofy inline assembly code to work around GCC inlining bugs") This was partially reverted because it made good cleanups irrespective of the inlining issue; the error message is still unneeded, and the conversion to STATIC_BRANCH_{NOP,JUMP} should be kept.

Instead of using six globally visible paravirt ops structures combine them in a single structure, keeping the original structures as sub-structures. This avoids the need to assemble struct paravirt_patch_template at runtime on the stack each time apply_paravirt() is being called (i.e. when loading a module).

Minor changes based on feedback and rebase from v8. Splitting the previous serie in two. This part contains assembly code changes required for PIE but without any direct dependencies with the rest of the patchset. Changes: - patch v9 (assembly): - Moved to relative reference for sync_core based on feedback. - x86/crypto had multiple algorithms deleted, removed PIE changes to them. -

Remove the inline asm duplication in ____PVOP_CALL(). Also add 'IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_X86_32)' to the return variable logic, making the code clearer and rendering the comment unnecessary.

This series reverts the in-kernel workarounds for inlining issues. The commit description of 77b0bf55bc67 mentioned "We also hope that GCC will eventually get fixed,..." Now, GCC provides a solution. https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Extended-Asm.html explains the new "asm inline" syntax. The performance issue will be eventually solved.
