Ah, sorry, this was my fault. Yes, this function is required. But this implementation also means there is an asm-based trampoline function which should be included in this patch.
David, could you tell me the repository which I can get the latest version of this series? I'd like to see the whole code of kprobes/arm64.
Thank you,
