Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] kprobes: Prohibit probing on CFI preamble symbol

From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@...nel.org>

Do not allow to probe on "__cfi_" or "__pfx_" started symbol, because those
are used for CFI and not executed. Probing it will break the CFI.

Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@...nel.org>
---
 Changes in v2:
  - Check "__pfx_" prefix functions too.
  - Make the check unconditional.
