The following commit has been merged into the x86/core branch of tip: Commit-ID: a194acd316f93f3435a64de3b37dca2b5a77b338 Gitweb: https://git.kernel.org/tip/a194acd316f93f3435a64de3b37dca2b5a77b338 Author: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Wed, 03 Mar 2021 00:25:34 +09:00 Committer: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitterDate: Tue, 23 Mar 2021 16:07:56 +01:00 x86/kprobes: Identify far indirect JMP correctly Since Grp5 far indirect JMP is FF "mod 101 r/m", it should be (modrm & 0x38) == 0x28, and near indirect JMP is also 0x38 == 0x20. So we can mask modrm with 0x30 and check 0x20. This is actually what the original code does, it also doesn't care the last bit. So the result code is same. Thus, I think this is just a cosmetic cleanup.
