[PATCH v2 11/14] x86/alt: Adjust _alternative_instructions() to not create shadow stacks

[Andrew Cooper <andrew.cooper3@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The current alternatives algorithm clears CR0.WP and writes into .text.  This
has a side effect of the mappings becoming shadow stacks once CET is active.

Adjust _alternative_instructions() to clean up after itself.  This involves
extending the set of bits modify_xen_mappings() to include Dirty (and Accessed
for good measure).
