[PATCH] Kprobes: Use RCU for (un)register synchronization - arch changes

Browse source

Changes to the arch kprobes infrastructure to take advantage of the locking
changes introduced by usage of RCU for synchronization.  All handlers are now
run without any locks held, so they have to be re-entrant or provide their own
synchronization.
