[PATCH 5.10 020/130] x86: Add insn_decode_kernel()

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Jul 12 2022 - 14:41:40 EST


From: Ben Hutchings <ben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

This was done by commit 52fa82c21f64e900a72437269a5cc9e0034b424e
upstream, but this backport avoids changing all callers of the
old decoder API.
