    x86/livepatch: Make livepatching compatible with CET Shadow Stacks
    
    Just like the alternatives infrastructure, the livepatch infrastructure
    disables CR0.WP to perform patching, which is not permitted with CET active.
    
    Modify arch_livepatch_{quiesce,revive}() to disable CET before disabling WP,
    and reset the dirty bits on all virtual regions before re-enabling CET.
    
    One complication is that arch_livepatch_revive() has to fix up the top of 
the
    shadow stack.  This depends on the functions not being inlined, even under
    LTO.  Another limitation is that reset_virtual_region_perms() may shatter 
the
    final superpage of .text depending on alignment.
    
    This logic, and its downsides, are temporary until the patching 
infrastructure
    can be adjusted to not use CR0.WP.
