ARM: move vector stubs
commit 19accfd373847ac3d10623c5d20f948846299741 upstream. Move the machine vector stubs into the page above the vector page, which we can prevent from being visible to userspace. Also move the reset stub, and place the swi vector at a location that the 'ldr' can get to it. This hides pointers into the kernel which could give valuable information to attackers, and reduces the number of exploitable instructions at a fixed address.
