[PATCH 1/2] uprobes: Don't assume that arch_uprobe->insn/ixol isu8[MAX_UINSN_BYTES]

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sat Nov 09 2013 - 12:52:49 EST


arch_uprobe should be opaque as much as possible to the generic
code, but currently it assumes that insn/ixol must be u8[] of the
known size. Remove this unnecessary dependency, we can use "&" and
and sizeof() with the same effect.
