[PATCH 4.16 232/279] uprobes/x86: Prohibit probing on MOV SS instruction

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

4.16-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 13ebe18c94f5b0665c01ae7fad2717ae959f4212 ]

Since MOV SS and POP SS instructions will delay the exceptions until the
next instruction is executed, single-stepping on it by uprobes must be
prohibited.

uprobe already rejects probing on POP SS (0x1f), but allows probing on MOV
SS (0x8e and reg == 2). This checks the target instruction and if it is
MOV SS or POP SS, returns -ENOTSUPP to reject probing.
