I am not sure this is needed, did you generate this file with make
savedefconfig? I thought CONFIG_OPENRISC would be set for every openrisc build
by default so not needed in the *_defconfig.

On openrisc I think we need to implement flush_insn_slot. As our
copy's only affect data caches instruction caches may end up being
stale. This is really hard to detect as context switches invalidate
a lot of the instruction cache lines, but not all.
I fixed this for text patching recently with commit aca063c90245
("openrisc: Fix jump_label smp syncing")

How is this working for these not function symbols? _ASM_NOKPROBE registers a
sybmol (in this case just a macro address) into the _kprobe_blacklist. I think
withing kprobe.c it uses these _kprobe_blacklist entries to detect ranges that
cannot be probed. However, in this case I think you are not able to get range
information.
