[PATCH -tip v3 5/7] kprobes/x86: Disable preempt ftrace-based jprobe

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Tue Sep 19 2017 - 06:02:19 EST


Disable preempt in ftrace-based jprobe handler as
described in Documentation/kprobes.txt, there is

"Probe handlers are run with preemption disabled."

This will fix jprobes behavior when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.
