[PATCH] kprobes: no probes on critical path
For Kprobes critical path is the path from debug break exception handler till the control reaches kprobes exception code. No probes can be supported in this path as we will end up in recursion. This patch prevents this by moving the below function to safe __kprobes section onto which no probes can be inserted.
