Subject: [PATCH 03/24] kprobes/x86: Fix to add __kprobes to in-kernel fault handing functions

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@...hat.com>

Add __kprobes to the functions which handle in-kernel fixable page
faults. Since kprobes can cause those in-kernel page faults by accessing
kprobe data structures, probing those fault functions will cause
fault-int3-loop (do_page_fault has already been marked as __kprobes).
