From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Jul 22 2022 - 05:20:44 EST
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit d4b5a5c993009ffeb5febe3b701da3faab6adb96 upstream.
Make sure we can see the text changes when booting with
'debug-alternative'.
Example output:
[ ] SMP alternatives: retpoline at: __traceiter_initcall_level+0x1f/0x30 (ffffffff8100066f) len: 5 to: __x86_indirect_thunk_rax+0x0/0x20
[ ] SMP alternatives: ffffffff82603e58: [2:5) optimized NOPs: ff d0 0f 1f 00
[ ] SMP alternatives: ffffffff8100066f: orig: e8 cc 30 00 01
[ ] SMP alternatives: ffffffff8100066f: repl: ff d0 0f 1f 00
