x86/alternatives: Check replacementlen <= instrlen at build time
Having run into the run-(boot-)time check a couple of times lately,
I finally took time to find a build-time check so that one doesn't
need to analyze the register/stack dump and resolve this (through
manual lookup in vmlinux) to the offending construct.
The assembler will emit a message like "Error: value of <num> too
large for field of 1 bytes at <offset>", which while not pointing
out the source location still makes analysis quite a bit easier.
