This replaces the prior support for Clang's standard Control Flow
Integrity (CFI) instrumentation, which has required a lot of special
conditions (e.g. LTO) and work-arounds. The current implementation
("Kernel CFI") is specific to C, directly designed for the Linux kernel,
and takes advantage of architectural features like x86's IBT. This
series retains arm64 support and adds x86 support. Additional "generic"
architectural support is expected soon:

- arm64: Replace Clang CFI support with Clang KCFI support

"This replaces the prior support for Clang's standard Control Flow

The new implementation ("Kernel CFI") is specific to C, directly

GCC support is expected in the future[1], and additional "generic"
