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.
