commit 26c44b776dba4ac692a0bf5a3836feb8a63fea6b upstream.
Currently, text_poke_bp() is very strict to only allow patching a
single instruction; however with straight-line-speculation it will be
required to patch: ret; int3, which is two instructions.
As such, relax the constraints a little to allow int3 padding for all
instructions that do not imply the execution of the next instruction,
ie: RET, JMP.d8 and JMP.d32.
While there, rename the text_poke_loc::rel32 field to ::disp.
Note: this fills up the text_poke_loc structure which is now a round
16 bytes big.
