Subject[PATCH -tip] x86/kprobes: Handle removed INT3 in do_int3()
Date
From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Since x86 doesn't use stop_machine() to patch the kernel text,
there is a small chance that the another CPU removes the INT3
during do_int3(). In this case, if no INT3 notifier callbacks
handled that, the kernel calls die() because of a stray INT3.

Currently this is checked and recovered in the kprobe_int3_handler(),
but this is wrong because;

- If CONFIG_KPROBES is not set, kernel does not handle this case.

- After kprobe_int3_handler() ignores that INT3, that can be
removed before notify_die(DIE_INT3). And if the callback misses
it, kernel dies.

- It skips the INT3 notifier callbacks if the INT3 is NOT managed
by the kprobes. Another callback may be able to handle it.

Thus, move the removed INT3 recovering code to do_int3(),
after calling all callbacks.
