Subject[PATCH v2 1/2] uprobes: Pass probed vaddr to arch_uprobe_analyze_insn()
From: Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli <ananth@in.ibm.com>

On RISC architectures like powerpc, instructions are fixed size.
Instruction analysis on such platforms is just a matter of (insn % 4).
Pass the vaddr at which the uprobe is to be inserted so that
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() can flag misaligned registration requests.

Changes in V2:
Pass (unsigned long)addr instead of (loff_t)vaddr to
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn(). We need the loff_t vaddr to take care of
the offset of inode:offset pair for large file sizes on 32bit.
