Subject[PATCH v2 6/9] arm64: alternative: Add support for patching adrp instructions
Date
adrp uses PC-relative address offset to a page (of 4K size) of
a symbol. If it appears in an alternative code patched in, we
should adjust the offset to reflect the address where it will
be run from. This patch adds support for fixing the offset
for adrp instructions.

Changes since V1:
- Add align_down macro. Couldn't find the best place to add it.
Didn't want to add this to uapi/ headers where the kernel's generic
ALIGN helpers are really defined. For the time being left it here.
