Currently we rely on the HIBERNATE_TEXT section starting with the entry
point to swsusp_arch_suspend_exit, and the KEXEC_TEXT section starting
with the entry point to arm64_relocate_new_kernel. In both cases we copy
the entire section into a dynamically-allocated page, and then later
branch to the start of this page.
SYM_FUNC_START() will align the function entry points to
CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT, and when the linker later processes the
assembled code it will place padding bytes before the function entry
point if the location counter was not already sufficiently aligned. The
linker happens to use the value zero for these padding bytes.
This padding may end up being applied whenever CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT
is greater than 4, which can be the case with
CONFIG_DEBUG_FORCE_FUNCTION_ALIGN_64B=y or
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_CALL_OPS=y.
When such padding is applied, attempting to kexec or resume from
hibernate will result ina crash: the kernel will branch to the padding
bytes as the start of the dynamically-allocated page, and as those bytes
are zero they will decode as UDF #0, which reliably triggers an
UNDEFINED exception. For example:

Note: Unfortunately the code dump reports "bad PC value" as it attempts
to dump some instructions prior to the UDF (i.e. before the start of the
page), and terminates early upon a fault, obscuring the problem.
This patch fixes this issue by aligning the section starter markes to
CONFIG_FUNCTION_ALIGNMENT using the ALIGN_FUNCTION() helper, which
ensures that the linker never needs to place padding bytes within the
section. Assertions are added to verify each section begins with the
function we expect, making our implicit requirement explicit.
In future it might be nice to rework the kexec and hibernation code to
decouple the section start from the entry point, but that involves much
more significant changes that come with a higher risk of error, so I've
tried to keep this fix as simple as possible for now.
