commit c85c9a2c6e368dc94907e63babb18a9788e5c9b6 upstream.
Commit 36dadef23fcc ("kprobes: Init kprobes in early_initcall")
moved the kprobe setup in early_initcall(), which includes kprobe
jump optimization.
The kprobes jump optimizer involves synchronize_rcu_tasks() which
depends on the ksoftirqd and rcu_spawn_tasks_*(). However, since
those are setup in core_initcall(), kprobes jump optimizer can not
run at the early_initcall().
To avoid this issue, make the kprobe optimization disabled in the
early_initcall() and enables it in subsys_initcall().
Note that non-optimized kprobes is still available after
early_initcall(). Only jump optimization is delayed.

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.
