locking/refcounts, x86/asm: Use unique .text section for refcount exceptions

Using .text.unlikely for refcount exceptions isn't safe because gcc may
move entire functions into .text.unlikely (e.g. in6_dev_dev()), which
would cause any uses of a protected refcount_t function to stay inline
with the function, triggering the protection unconditionally:

        .section        .text.unlikely,"ax",@progbits
        .type   in6_dev_get, @function
in6_dev_getx:
.LFB4673:
        .loc 2 4128 0
        .cfi_startproc
...
        lock; incl 480(%rbx)
        js 111f
        .pushsection .text.unlikely
111:    lea 480(%rbx), %rcx
112:    .byte 0x0f, 0xff
.popsection
113:

This creates a unique .text..refcount section and adds an additional
test to the exception handler to WARN in the case of having none of OF,
SF, nor ZF set so we can see things like this more easily in the future.

The double dot for the section name keeps it out of the TEXT_MAIN macro
namespace, to avoid collisions and so it can be put at the end with
text.unlikely to keep the cold code together.

See commit:

  cb87481ee89db ("kbuild: linker script do not match C names unless LD_DEAD_CODE_DATA_ELIMINATION is configured")

... which matches C names: [a-zA-Z0-9_] but not ".".
