Log Message:
Implement a real hotpatch feature.

Define a HOTPATCH() macro, that puts a label and additional information
in the new .rodata.hotpatch kernel section. In patch.c, scan the section
and patch what needs to be. Now it is possible to hotpatch the content of
a macro.

SMAP is switched to use this new system; this saves a call+ret in each
kernel entry/exit point.

Many other operating systems do the same.
