Subject: kprobes: refuse kprobe insertion on add/sub_preempt_counter()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=43627582799db317e966ecb0002c2c3c9805ec0f;p=GitHub%2Fexynos8895%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal8895.git

kprobes: refuse kprobe insertion on add/sub_preempt_counter()

Kprobes makes use of preempt_disable(),preempt_enable_noresched() and these
functions inturn call add/sub_preempt_count().  So we need to refuse user from
inserting probe in to these functions.

This patch disallows user from probing add/sub_preempt_count().
