module_trampoline_target() is quite a hot path used when activating/deactivating function tracer. Avoid the heavy copy_from_kernel_nofault() by doing four calls to copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault(). Use __copy_inst_from_kernel_nofault() for the 3 last calls. First call is done to copy_from_kernel_nofault() to check address is within kernel space. No risk to wrap out the top of kernel space because the last page is never mapped so if address is in last page the first copy will fails and the other ones will never be performed. And also make it notrace just like all functions that call it.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
