uprobes: Introduce arch_uprobe->ixol
Currently xol_get_insn_slot() assumes that we should simply copy arch_uprobe->insn[] which is (ignoring arch_uprobe_analyze_insn) just the copy of the original insn. This is not true for arm which needs to create another insn to execute it out-of-line. So this patch simply adds the new member, ->ixol into the union. This doesn't make any difference for x86 and powerpc, but arm can divorce insn/ixol and initialize the correct xol insn in arch_uprobe_analyze_insn(). Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>
