kprobes/x86: Allow probe on some kprobe preparation functions
There is no need to prohibit probing on the functions used in preparation phase. Those are safely probed because those are not invoked from breakpoint/fault/debug handlers, there is no chance to cause recursive exceptions. Following functions are now removed from the kprobes blacklist: can_boost can_probe can_optimize is_IF_modifier __copy_instruction copy_optimized_instructions arch_copy_kprobe arch_prepare_kprobe arch_arm_kprobe arch_disarm_kprobe arch_remove_kprobe arch_trampoline_kprobe arch_prepare_kprobe_ftrace arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe arch_check_optimized_kprobe arch_within_optimized_kprobe __arch_remove_optimized_kprobe arch_remove_optimized_kprobe arch_optimize_kprobes arch_unoptimize_kprobe I tested those functions by putting kprobes on all instructions in the functions with the bash script I sent to LKML.
