Subject[PATCH v3 3/4] kprobes: move x86-specific blacklist symbols to arch directory
Date
From: Björn Davidsson <bjorn.davidsson@sonymobile.com>

The common kprobes blacklist contains x86-specific symbols.
Looking for these in kallsyms takes unnecessary time during startup
on non-X86 platform. The symbols where moved to
arch/x86/kernel/kprobes/core.c.
