Hi Masami,

Thanks so much for your reply.

I find something interesting in arch/powerpc/kernel/optprobes.c, it use 
"optinsn_slot" as a public buffer, and use a static "insn_page_in_use" 
to make sure there is only one optprobe in kernel.

If we use this solution , users could only register one optprobe each 
time. This will also be a limitation for users, what's your opinion 
about this?

I'll try to minimize the trampoline according to this,
