[PATCH] trace: reenable preemption if we modify the ip

From: Josef Bacik <josef@toxicpanda.com>
Date: 2017-12-16 02:43:02

From: Josef Bacik <redacted>

Things got moved around between the original bpf_override_return patches
and the final version, and now the ftrace kprobe dispatcher assumes if
you modified the ip that you also enabled preemption.  Make a comment of
this and enable preemption, this fixes the lockdep splat that happened
when using this feature.

Applied to bpf-next with Fixes tag, thanks Josef.

Where is reset_current_kprobe()?
Since kprobes still expects this modification is used by jprobes,
we need to call it in caller-side.

Thank you,
