I don't fully understand this function, but I've checked that the ARM
version now matches the x86 version (apart from the x86 specific
register fixup and some comments). So, FWIW

Acked-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@xxxxxxxxxx>

I ran the before and after test case in the commit log on ARM and
verified the result is correct. I also tried running the ARM kprobe
tests with these 3 fixes but the tests fail. However, they also fail
without any of these changes, so I'll investigate that further...
