LoongArch: BPF: No text_poke() for kernel text

The current implementation of bpf_arch_text_poke() requires 5 nops
at patch site which is not applicable for kernel/module functions.
Because LoongArch reserves ONLY 2 nops at the function entry. With
CONFIG_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_DIRECT_CALLS=y, this can be done by ftrace
instead.

See the following commit for details:
  * commit b91e014f078e ("bpf: Make BPF trampoline use register_ftrace_direct() API")
  * commit 9cdc3b6a299c ("LoongArch: ftrace: Add direct call support")
