Alexei Starovoitov 9a67245d88 [bpf] allow direct and indirect calls
kernel verifier is becoming smarter and soon will support
direct and indirect function calls.
Remove obsolete error from BPF backend.
Make call to use PCRel_4 fixup.
'bpf to bpf' calls are distinguished from 'bpf to kernel' calls
by insn->src_reg == BPF_PSEUDO_CALL == 1 which is used as relocation
indicator similar to ld_imm64->src_reg == BPF_PSEUDO_MAP_FD == 1
The actual 'call' instruction remains the same for both
'bpf to kernel' and 'bpf to bpf' calls.

Alexei Starovoitov e4975487f5 [bpf] error when unknown bpf helper is called
Emit error when BPF backend sees a call to a global function or to an external symbol.
The kernel verifier only allows calls to predefined helpers from bpf.h
which are defined in 'enum bpf_func_id'. Such calls in assembler must
look like 'call [1-9]+' where number matches bpf_func_id.
