Anshuman Khandual b98cca444d mm, kprobes: generalize and rename notify_page_fault() as kprobe_page_fault() 
Architectures which support kprobes have very similar boilerplate around
calling kprobe_fault_handler().  Use a helper function in kprobes.h to
unify them, based on the x86 code.

This changes the behaviour for other architectures when preemption is
enabled.  Previously, they would have disabled preemption while calling
the kprobe handler.  However, preemption would be disabled if this fault
was due to a kprobe, so we know the fault was not due to a kprobe
handler and can simply return failure.

This behaviour was introduced in commit a980c0ef9f ("x86/kprobes:
Refactor kprobes_fault() like kprobe_exceptions_notify()")

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
