kprobes/x86-32: Move irq-exit functions to kprobes section
Move irq-exit functions to .kprobes.text section to protect against kprobes recursion. When I ran kprobe stress test on x86-32, I found below symbols cause unrecoverable recursive probing: ret_from_exception ret_from_intr check_userspace restore_all restore_all_notrace restore_nocheck irq_return And also, I found some interrupt/exception entry points that cause similar problems. This patch moves those symbols (including their container functions) to .kprobes.text section to prevent any kprobes probing.
