MIPS Kprobes: Support branch instructions probing
This patch provides support for kprobes on branch instructions. The branch
instruction at the probed address is actually emulated and not executed
out-of-line like other normal instructions. Instead the delay-slot instruction
is copied and single stepped out of line.
At the time of probe hit, the original branch instruction is evaluated
and the target cp0_epc is computed similar to compute_retrun_epc(). It
is also checked if the delay slot instruction can be skipped, which is
true if there is a NOP in delay slot or branch is taken in case of
branch likely instructions. Once the delay slot instruction is single
stepped the normal execution resume with the cp0_epc updated the earlier
computed cp0_epc as per the branch instructions.

MIPS Kprobes: Refactor branch emulation
This patch refactors MIPS branch emulation code so as to allow skipping
delay slot instruction in case of branch likely instructions when branch is
not taken. This is useful for keeping the code common for use cases like
kprobes where one would like to handle the branch instructions keeping the
delay slot instuction also in picture for branch likely instructions. Also
allow emulation when instruction to be decoded is not at pt_regs->cp0_epc
as in case of kprobes where pt_regs->cp0_epc points to the breakpoint
instruction.
The patch also exports the function for modules.

TTY: ldisc, wait for ldisc infinitely in hangup
For /dev/console case, we do not kill all ldisc users. It's due to
redirected_tty_write test in __tty_hangup. In that case there still
might be a process waiting e.g. in n_tty_read for input.
We wait for such processes to disappear. The problem is that we use a
timeout. After this timeout, we continue closing the ldisc and start
freeing tty resources. It obviously leads to crashes when the other
process is woken.
So to fix this, we wait infinitely before reiniting the ldisc. (The
tiocsetd remains untouched -- times out after 5s.)
This is nicely reproducible with this run from shell:
exec 0<>/dev/console 1<>/dev/console 2<>/dev/console
and stopping a getty like:
systemctl stop serial-getty@ttyS0.service
