kprobes: Introduce kprobes jump optimization
Introduce kprobes jump optimization arch-independent parts.
Kprobes uses breakpoint instruction for interrupting execution
flow, on some architectures, it can be replaced by a jump
instruction and interruption emulation code. This gains kprobs'
performance drastically.
To enable this feature, set CONFIG_OPTPROBES=y (default y if the
arch supports OPTPROBE).
Changes in v9:
- Fix a bug to optimize probe when enabling.
- Check nearby probes can be optimize/unoptimize when disarming/arming
kprobes, instead of registering/unregistering. This will help
kprobe-tracer because most of probes on it are usually disabled.
Changes in v6:
- Cleanup coding style for readability.
- Add comments around get/put_online_cpus().
Changes in v5:
- Use get_online_cpus()/put_online_cpus() for avoiding text_mutex
deadlock.
