[PATCH 3/3] uprobes/x86: Simplify riprel_{pre,post}_xol() and make them similar

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sun Apr 27 2014 - 12:53:01 EST


Ignoring the "correction" logic riprel_pre_xol() and riprel_post_xol()
are very similar but look quite differently.

1. Add the "UPROBE_FIX_RIP_AX | UPROBE_FIX_RIP_CX" check at the start
of riprel_pre_xol(), like the same check in riprel_post_xol().

2. Add the trivial scratch_reg() helper which returns the address of
scratch register pre_xol/post_xol need to change.

3. Change these functions to use the new helper and avoid copy-and-paste
under if/else branches.
