bpf, x64: Allow to use caller address from stack
Currently we call the original function by using the absolute address given at the JIT generation. That's not usable when having trampoline attached to multiple functions, or the target address changes dynamically (in case of live patch). In such cases we need to take the return address from the stack. Adding support to retrieve the original function address from the stack by adding new BPF_TRAMP_F_ORIG_STACK flag for arch_prepare_bpf_trampoline function. Basically we take the return address of the 'fentry' call: function + 0: call fentry # stores 'function + 5' address on stack function + 5: ... The 'function + 5' address will be used as the address for the original function to call.
