[RFC PATCH 5/5] kprobes: Make arch_check_ftrace_location static

From: Punit Agrawal
Date: Wed Jun 09 2021 - 06:52:41 EST


arch_check_ftrace_location() was introduced as a weak function in
f7f242ff0044 ("kprobes: introduce weak arch_check_ftrace_location()
helper function") to allow architectures to handle kprobes call site
on their own.

Recently, the only architecture (csky) to implement
arch_check_ftrace_location() was migrated to using the common
version.

As a result, further cleanup the code to drop the weak attribute and
rename the function to remove the architecture specific
implementation.
