ac61a75796 kmemcheck: add opcode self-testing at boot
We've had some troubles in the past with weird instructions. This
patch adds a self-test framework which can be used to verify that
a certain set of opcodes are decoded correctly. Of course, the
opcodes which are not tested can still give the wrong results.

In short, this is just a safeguard to catch unintentional changes
in the opcode decoder. It does not mean that errors can't still
occur!

[rebased for mainline inclusion]
