Subject[PATCH v5] powerpc/uprobes: Validation for prefixed instruction
Date
As per ISA 3.1, prefixed instruction should not cross 64-byte
boundary. So don't allow Uprobe on such prefixed instruction.

There are two ways probed instruction is changed in mapped pages.
First, when Uprobe is activated, it searches for all the relevant
pages and replace instruction in them. In this case, if that probe
is on the 64-byte unaligned prefixed instruction, error out
directly. Second, when Uprobe is already active and user maps a
relevant page via mmap(), instruction is replaced via mmap() code
path. But because Uprobe is invalid, entire mmap() operation can
not be stopped. In this case just print an error and continue.
