Subject: [PATCH 4.16 231/279] kprobes/x86: Prohibit probing on exception masking instructions

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

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

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

[ Upstream commit ee6a7354a3629f9b65bc18dbe393503e9440d6f5 ]

Since MOV SS and POP SS instructions will delay the exceptions until the
next instruction is executed, single-stepping on it by kprobes must be
prohibited.

However, kprobes usually executes those instructions directly on trampoline
buffer (a.k.a. kprobe-booster), except for the kprobes which has
post_handler. Thus if kprobe user probes MOV SS with post_handler, it will
do single-stepping on the MOV SS.

This means it is safe that if it is used via ftrace or perf/bpf since those
don't use the post_handler.

Anyway, since the stack switching is a rare case, it is safer just
rejecting kprobes on such instructions.
