lkdtm: Check for SMEP clearing protections

This adds an x86-specific test for pinned cr4 bits. A successful test
will validate pinning and check the ROP-style call-middle-of-function
defense, if needed. For example, in the case of native_write_cr4()
looking like this:

ffffffff8171bce0 <native_write_cr4>:
ffffffff8171bce0:       48 8b 35 79 46 f2 00    mov    0xf24679(%rip),%rsi
ffffffff8171bce7:       48 09 f7                or     %rsi,%rdi
ffffffff8171bcea:       0f 22 e7                mov    %rdi,%cr4
...
ffffffff8171bd5a:       c3                      retq

The UNSET_SMEP test will jump to ffffffff8171bcea (the mov to cr4)
instead of ffffffff8171bce0 (native_write_cr4() entry) to simulate a
direct-call bypass attempt.

Expected successful results:

  # echo UNSET_SMEP > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT
  # dmesg
