Can we rename kernel/kprobes as kernel/probes? uprobes code will use
decode-insn.c and further simulate-insn.c as well. So, I would like to place my
uprobes.c in same directory.

IIRC, Will Daecon had asked to include asm-generic/ptrace.h into asm/ptrace.h when
I had done similar changes for uprobe needs. May be you can pick patch from
my uprobe tree.
