3.16.60-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 0d73c3f8e7f6ee2aab1bb350f60c180f5ae21a2c upstream. Since do_undefinstr() uses get_user to get the undefined instruction, it can be called before kprobes processes recursive check. This can cause an infinit recursive exception. Prohibit probing on get_user functions.
