Patches have been rebased on v4.9-rc3. They have been tested with mustang and seattle platform for following test cases.

1. Step-able instructions, like sub, ldr, add etc.
2. Simulation-able like ret, cbnz, cbz etc.
3. uretprobe
4. Reject-able instructions like sev, wfe etc.
5. trapped and abort xol path
6. probe at unaligned user address.
7. longjump test cases

aarch32 task probing is not yet supported.
