Josh Poimboeuf 344050d8d3 kmod/core: remove assembler code
Long ago, the kpatch_trampoline required being written in assembler, but
that's no longer needed now that it integrates nicely with ftrace.

Move it to a C function and rename it kpatch_ftrace_handler.

Seth Jennings 2419410a52 fix KPATCH_BUILD path
use the build symlink in /lib/modules for a more portable
path to the build env for the kernel.

Josh Poimboeuf 8085d0402b build and install core module with make
Build and install the kpatch core module with make and make install,
rather than building it every time with kpatch build.

The only downside to this approach is that the user has to make and make
install kpatch every time they get a new kernel.  But this is only
temporary, until the kpatch module is delivered in an RPM.

Josh Poimboeuf 62de820aab proper makefile support
- setup the makefiles to support "make" and "make install", which builds
  the kpatch-build tools and installs everything in /usr/local.
- update kpatch-build to support new paths
- add "kpatch build" wrapper around kpatch-build

Josh Poimboeuf 4f27b9ae31 functional reorganization
Organize the files functionally:
- kmod/core: core kmod source
- kmod/patch: patch kmod source
- kpatch: kpatch script
- kpatch-build: kpatch build script and supporting tools
- contrib: distro-related files
