bpf: specify the old and new poke_type for bpf_arch_text_poke
In the origin logic, the bpf_arch_text_poke() assume that the old and new instructions have the same opcode. However, they can have different opcode if we want to replace a "call" insn with a "jmp" insn. Therefore, add the new function parameter "old_t" along with the "new_t", which are used to indicate the old and new poke type. Meanwhile, adjust the implement of bpf_arch_text_poke() for all the archs. "BPF_MOD_NOP" is added to make the code more readable. In bpf_arch_text_poke(), we still check if the new and old address is NULL to determine if nop insn should be used, which I think is more safe.
