The problem is that the A bit can change randomly when interrupts or
reschedules happen (I'm not sure it should, and it may be a bug). For
the purposes of this test code, we can't disable interrupts and
scheduling around all the iterations of a test case, because inserting
and removing probes requires them to be enabled. So we need a method of
ignoring bits in cpsr, how about the following patch...

Subject: [PATCH] ARM: kprobes: Fix unreliable MRS instruction tests

For the instruction 'mrs Rn, cpsr' the resulting value of Rn can vary due to
external factors we can't control. So get the test code to mask out these
indeterminate bits.
