x86/alternative: Make custom return thunk unconditional
There is infrastructure to rewrite return thunks to point to any random thunk one desires, unwrap that from CALL_THUNKS, which up to now was the sole user of that. [ bp: Make the thunks visible on 32-bit and add ifdeffery for the 32-bit builds. ] Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: Borislav Petkov (AMD) <bp@alien8.de> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230814121148.775293785@infradead.org
