3.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 7ddc6a2199f1da405a2fb68c40db8899b1a8cd87 upstream.
These functions can be executed on the int3 stack, so kprobes
are dangerous. Tracing is probably a bad idea, too.
Fixes: b645af2d5905 ("x86_64, traps: Rework bad_iret")
