Subject: [PATCH 20/21] kpatch-build: add compile flag -fno-reorder-functions

Sometimes function foo with static variables can be put in
.text.foo section in original binary and be put in
.text.unlikely.foo section in patched binary. This will result
in "reference to static local variable xxx in foo was removed"
problem because the .text.foo section can not be correlated
to .text.unlikely.foo section by create-diff-object.

gcc just put the function in .text.unlikely.xxx section,the
symbol name doesn't change which is different with other
optimization such as ".constprop/.isra/.part". So disable the
optimization with -fno-reorder-functions just make sure the
function is placed in .text.xxx section, kernel can still find
the symbol name to patch or relocate.
