Mark Rutland 4488f90c86 arm64: insn: simplify insn group identification
The only code which needs to check for an entire instruction group is
the aarch64_insn_is_steppable() helper function used by kprobes, which
must not be instrumented, and only needs to check for the "Branch,
exception generation and system instructions" class.

Currently we have an out-of-line helper in insn.c which must be marked
as __kprobes, which indexes a table with some bits extracted from the
instruction. In aarch64_insn_is_steppable() we then need to compare the
result with an expected enum value.

It would be simpler to have a predicate for this, as with the other
aarch64_insn_is_*() helpers, which would be always inlined to prevent
inadvertent instrumentation, and would permit better code generation.

This patch adds a predicate function for this instruction group using
the existing __AARCH64_INSN_FUNCS() helpers, and removes the existing
out-of-line helper. As the only class we currently care about is the
branch+exception+sys class, I have only added helpers for this, and left
the other classes unimplemented for now.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.
