[RFC PATCH tip/master V2 4/8] kprobes/x86: Do not modify singlestep buffer while resuming

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Mon Mar 27 2017 - 04:02:26 EST


Do not modify singlestep execution buffer (kprobe.ainsn.insn)
while resuming from single-stepping, instead, modifies
the buffer to add a jump back instruction at preparing
buffer.
