kprobes: kretprobes simplifications
- consolidate duplicate code in all arch_prepare_kretprobe instances into common code - replace various odd helpers that use hlist_for_each_entry to get the first elemenet of a list with either a hlist_for_each_entry_save or an opencoded access to the first element in the caller - inline add_rp_inst into it's only remaining caller - use kretprobe_inst_table_head instead of opencoding it Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de> Cc: Prasanna S Panchamukhi <prasanna@in.ibm.com> Acked-by: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com> Cc: Anil S Keshavamurthy <anil.s.keshavamurthy@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
