Subject[PATCH] x86: Use is_kprobe_fault to better match usage
From
Date
Currently the notify_page_fault helper is used to test it the page
fault was caused by a kprobe causing an early return from do_page_fault.

Change the name of the helper to is_kprobe_fault to match the usage and
remove the preempt_disable/enable pair around kprobe_running() with an
explicit test for preemption. The idea for this comes from a patch
by Quentin Barnes to kprobes.c

Ingo, this may not be functionally equivalent, feel free to yank it out
if there is any trouble, but from what I've seen it should be OK.

Did you ever find a good kprobes test?
