It's possible to escape the text_mutex-held assert in
smp_text_poke_batch_process() if the caller uses a properly
batched and sorted series of patch requests, so add
an explicit lockdep_assert_held() to make sure it's
held by all callers.

All text_poke_int3_*() APIs will call either smp_text_poke_batch_process()
or smp_text_poke_batch_flush() internally.

The text_mutex must be held, because tp_vec and tp_vec_nr et al
are all globals, and the INT3 patching machinery itself relies on
external serialization.
