Subject[PATCH v2] uprobes/x86: allow to probe a "nop" insn with 0x66 prefix
Intel icc -hotpatch inserts 2-byte "0x66 0x90" NOP at the start of each
function to reserve extra space for hot-patching, and currently it is not
possible to probe these functions because branch_setup_xol_ops() wrongly
nacks NOP with REP prefix.

Fixes: 250bbd12c2fe ("uprobes/x86: Refuse to attach uprobe to "word-sized" branch insns")
