From: Christian A. Ehrhardt <lk@xxxxxxx> commit 1efda38d6f9ba26ac88b359c6277f1172db03f1e upstream. The system call gate area counts as kernel text but trying to install a kprobe in this area fails with an Oops later on. To fix this explicitly disallow the gate area for kprobes. Found by syzkaller with the following reproducer: perf_event_open$cgroup(&(0x7f00000001c0)={0x6, 0x80, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x80ffff, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0, 0x0,
