Jiang Liu c84fced8d9 arm64: move encode_insn_immediate() from module.c to insn.c
Function encode_insn_immediate() will be used by other instruction
manipulate related functions, so move it into insn.c and rename it
as aarch64_insn_encode_immediate().

Will Deacon 122e2fa0d3 arm64: module: ensure instruction is little-endian before manipulation
Relocations that require an instruction immediate to be re-encoded must
ensure that the instruction pattern is represented in a little-endian
format for the manipulation code to work correctly.

This patch converts the loaded instruction into native-endianess prior
to encoding and then converts back to little-endian byteorder before
updating memory.

Will Deacon 257cb25192 arm64: Loadable modules
This patch adds support for loadable modules. Loadable modules are
loaded 64MB below the kernel image due to branch relocation restrictions
(see Documentation/arm64/memory.txt).
