Subject: [kpatch] [PATCH] livepatch v7: move x86 specific ftrace handler code
 to arch/x86

The execution flow redirection related implemention in the livepatch
ftrace handler is depended on the specific architecture. This patch
introduces klp_arch_set_pc(like kgdb_arch_set_pc) interface to change
the pt_regs.
