Use fixmaps for text patching when the kernel text is read-only,
inspired by x86. This makes jump labels and kprobes work with the
currently available CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX and the upcoming
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA options.

[kees: fixed up for merge with "arm: use generic fixmap.h"]
[kees: added parse acquire/release annotations to pass C=1 builds]
[kees: always use stop_machine to keep TLB flushing local]

Add the arch-specific code to support jump labels for ARM and Thumb-2.
This code will only be activated on compilers that are capable of
building it. It has been tested with GCC 4.6 patched with the patch
from GCC bug 48637.
