openrisc: Add text patching API support

Browse source 
Add text patching api's to use in subsequent jump_label implementation.  We use
a new fixmap FIX_TEXT_POKE0 entry to temporarily override MMU mappings to allow
read only text pages to be written to.

Previously, __set_fix was marked with __init as it was only used during the
EARLYCON stage. Now that TEXT_POKE mappings require post-init usage
(e.g., FIX_TEXT_POKE0), keeping __init would cause runtime bugs whenset_fixmap
accesses invalid memory. Thus, we remove the __init flag to ensure __set_fix
remains valid beyond initialization.

A new function patch_insn_write is exposed to allow single instruction patching.
