Hi!

Alyssa reported a FineIBT issue (patch 6) which led to the discovery of
a kCFI issue (patch 5) and a bunch of cleanups and enhancements (the
rest).

Backports can probably suffice with just the last two.

Much thanks to Brian for the better ret_from_fork() cleanup.

Tested using llvm-16 on an Alderlake with both FineIBT and kCFI.

(I'm aiming for the merge window, not this cycle)
