I think it would be useful to add a comment here so that we remember
why this code is the way it is:
/*
* Provide a blacklist of symbols identifying ranges which cannot be kprobed.
* This blacklist is exposed to userspace via debugfs (kprobes/blacklist).
*/
With that, you can have my ack for the series:
Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@....com>
Catalin -- can you pick these up with that comment added, please?
Cheers,
Will
