[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 08/12] livepatch: Add support for inline asm hotpatching expectations



This is the initial implementation of the expectations enhancement
to improve inline asm hotpatching.

Expectations are designed as optional feature, since the main use of
them is planned for inline asm hotpatching. The flag enabled allows
to control the expectation state.
Each expectation has data and len fields that describe the data
that is expected to be found at a given patching (old_addr) location.
The len must not exceed the data array size. The data array size
follows the size of the opaque array, since the opaque array holds
the original data and therefore must match what is specified in the
expectation (if enabled).

The payload structure is modified as each expectation structure is
part of the livepatch_func structure and hence extends the payload.

Each expectation is checked prior to the apply action (i.e. as late
as possible to check against the most current state of the code).

For the replace action a new payload's expectations are checked AFTER
all applied payloads are successfully reverted, but BEFORE new payload
is applied. That breaks the replace action's atomicity and in case of
an expectation check failure would leave a system with all payloads
reverted. That is obviously insecure. Use it with caution and act
upon replace errors!
