With gcc toplevel assembler statements that do not mark themselves as .text
may end up in other sections. This causes LTO boot crashes because various
assembler statements ended up in the middle of the initcall section. It's
also a latent problem without LTO, although it's currently not known to
cause any real problems.
According to the gcc team it's expected behavior.
Always mark all the top level assembler statements as text so that they
switch to the right section.

With link time optimizations enabled, I get a link failure:
./ccLbOEHX.ltrans19.ltrans.o: In function `override_function_with_return':
<artificial>:(.text+0x7f3): undefined reference to `just_return_func'
Marking the symbol .globl makes it work as expected.

Fixes: 540adea380 ("error-injection: Separate error-injection from kprobe")

Since error-injection framework is not limited to be used
by kprobes, nor bpf. Other kernel subsystems can use it
freely for checking safeness of error-injection, e.g.
livepatch, ftrace etc.
So this separate error-injection framework from kprobes.
Some differences has been made:
- "kprobe" word is removed from any APIs/structures.
- BPF_ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() is renamed to
ALLOW_ERROR_INJECTION() since it is not limited for BPF too.
- CONFIG_FUNCTION_ERROR_INJECTION is the config item of this
feature. It is automatically enabled if the arch supports
error injection feature for kprobe or ftrace etc.
