Subject: [PATCH -tip v6 07/11] x86: Add text_poke_smp for SMP cross modifying
	code

Add generic text_poke_smp for SMP which uses stop_machine()
to synchronize modifying code.
Since stop_machine() can't protect code against NMI/MCE, this
function can not modify those handlers. And also, this function
is basically for modifying multibyte-single-instruction. For
modifying multibyte-multi-instructions, we need another special
trap & detour code.

This code originaly comes from immediate value.
