Take into account CONFIG_FTRACE_VALIDATE_RCU_IS_WATCHING when validating that RCU is watching when trying to setup rethooko on a function entry. One notable exception when we force rcu_is_watching() check is CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS_ON_NOTRACE=y case, in which case kretprobes will use old-style int3-based workflow instead of relying on ftrace, making RCU watching check important to validate. This further (in addition to improvements in the previous patch) improves BPF multi-kretprobe (which rely on rethook) runtime throughput by 2.3%, according to BPF benchmarks ([0]).

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 reStructuredText 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.
