Subject: [PATCH v4 14/15] x86, kprobes: Fix optprobe_template_func type mismatch

The optprobe_template_func symbol is defined in inline assembly,
but it's not marked global, which conflicts with the C declaration
needed for STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD and confuses the compiler when
CONFIG_CFI_CLANG is enabled.

Marking the symbol global would make the compiler happy, but as the
compiler also generates a CFI jump table entry for all address-taken
functions, the jump table ends up containing a jump to the .rodata
section where optprobe_template_func resides, which results in an
objtool warning.

Use ASM_STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD instead to avoid both issues.
