Improve error handling when disarming ftrace-based kprobes. Like with
arm_kprobe_ftrace(), propagate any errors from disarm_kprobe_ftrace() so
that we do not disable/unregister kprobes that are still armed. In other
words, unregister_kprobe() and disable_kprobe() should not report success
if the kprobe could not be disarmed.
disarm_all_kprobes() keeps its current behavior and attempts to
disarm all kprobes. It returns the last encountered error and gives a
warning if not all probes could be disarmed.
This patch is based on Petr Mladek's original patchset (patches 2 and 3)
back in 2015, which improved kprobes error handling, found here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/2/26/452
However, further work on this had been paused since then and the patches
were not upstreamed.

Improve error handling when arming ftrace-based kprobes. Specifically, if
we fail to arm a ftrace-based kprobe, register_kprobe()/enable_kprobe()
should report an error instead of success. Previously, this has lead to
confusing situations where register_kprobe() would return 0 indicating
success, but the kprobe would not be functional if ftrace registration
during the kprobe arming process had failed. We should therefore take any
errors returned by ftrace into account and propagate this error so that we
do not register/enable kprobes that cannot be armed. This can happen if,
for example, register_ftrace_function() finds an IPMODIFY conflict (since
kprobe_ftrace_ops has this flag set) and returns an error. Such a conflict
is possible since livepatches also set the IPMODIFY flag for their ftrace_ops.
arm_all_kprobes() keeps its current behavior and attempts to arm all
kprobes. It returns the last encountered error and gives a warning if
not all probes could be armed.
This patch is based on Petr Mladek's original patchset (patches 2 and 3)
back in 2015, which improved kprobes error handling, found here:

This reverts commit f120c7b187e6c418238710b48723ce141f467543 which is no
longer required with the introduction of a syscall.tbl on s390.

Recently, s390 uses a syscall.tbl input file to generate its system call
table and unistd uapi header files. Hence, update mksyscalltbl to use
it as input to create the system table for perf.
