x86/hvm: Use __initdata_cf_clobber for hvm_funcs
Now that all calls through hvm_funcs are fully altcall'd, harden all the svm
and vmx function pointer targets. This drops 106 endbr64 instructions.
Clobbering does come with a theoretical risk. The non-pointer fields of
{svm,vmx}_function_table can in theory happen to form a bit pattern
matching a
pointer into .text at a legal endbr64 instruction, but this is expected to
be
implausible for anything liable to pass code review.
While at it, move hvm_funcs into __ro_after_init now that this exists.
