Subject[PATCH 02/24] kprobes/x86-64: Allow to reenter probe on post_handler
Date
From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@redhat.com>

Allow to reenter probe on the post_handler of another probe on x86-64,
because x86-64 already allows reentering int3.
In that case, reentered probe just increases kp.nmissed and returns.
