[PATCH v2] kprobes: remove duplicated strong free_insn_page in x86 and s390
From: Barry Song
Date: Mon Jun 07 2021 - 05:19:13 EST
free_insn_page() in x86 and s390 are same with the common weak function
in kernel/kprobes.c.
Plus, the comment "Recover page to RW mode before releasing it" in x86
seems insensible to be there since resetting mapping is done by common
code in vfree() of module_memfree().
So drop these two duplicated strong functions and related comment, then
mark the common one in kernel/kprobes.c strong.

-v2:
remove free_insn_page in s390 as well and remove the __weak in common
code according to Christoph's comment;
