x86/module: Fix the paravirt vs alternative order
Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2170197 Conflicts: Minor context diffs in the first hunk due to the presence of later upstream commit ed53a0d ("x86/alternative: Use .ibt_endbr_seal to seal indirect calls") and commit 15e6722 ("x86: Undo return-thunk damage"). commit 5adf349 Author: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Date: Thu, 3 Mar 2022 12:23:23 +0100 x86/module: Fix the paravirt vs alternative order Ever since commit 4e62921 ("x86/paravirt: Add new features for paravirt patching") there is an ordering dependency between patching paravirt ops and patching alternatives, the module loader still violates this.
