kprobes: Allow architectures to override optinsn page allocation
Some architectures like powerpc require a non standard
allocation of optinsn page, because module pages are
too far from the kernel for direct branches.
Define weak alloc_optinsn_page() and free_optinsn_page(), that
fall back on alloc_insn_page() and free_insn_page() when not
overridden by the architecture.
