[PATCH v8 1/2] kprobes: copy ainsn after alloc aggr kprobe

From: Wang Nan
Date: Tue Nov 18 2014 - 01:35:59 EST


Copy old kprobe to newly alloced optimized_kprobe before
arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe(). Original kprove can brings more
information to optimizer.

v1 -> v2:
- Bugfix: copy p->addr when alloc_aggr_kprobe.
