Subject: [PATCH 4.9 44/47] kprobes/x86: Blacklist indirect thunk functions for kprobes

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@...nel.org>

commit c1804a236894ecc942da7dc6c5abe209e56cba93 upstream.

Mark __x86_indirect_thunk_* functions as blacklist for kprobes
because those functions can be called from anywhere in the kernel
including blacklist functions of kprobes.
