Subject: arm: kprobes: Fix the return address of multiple kretprobes

From: Masami Hiramatsu <[email protected]>

[ Upstream commit 06553175f585b52509c7df37d6f4a50aacb7b211 ]

This is arm port of commit 737480a0d525 ("kprobes/x86:
Fix the return address of multiple kretprobes").

Fix the return address of subsequent kretprobes when multiple kretprobes are set on the same function.

For example:

  # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
  # echo "r:event1 sys_symlink" > kprobe_events
  # echo "r:event2 sys_symlink" >> kprobe_events
  # echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable
  # ln -s /tmp/foo /tmp/bar

(without this patch)

  # cat trace | grep -v ^#
              ln-82    [000] dn.2    68.446525: event1: (kretprobe_trampoline+0x0/0x18 <- SyS_symlink)
              ln-82    [000] dn.2    68.447831: event2: (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c <- SyS_symlink)

(with this patch)

  # cat trace | grep -v ^#
              ln-81    [000] dn.1    39.463469: event1: (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c <- SyS_symlink)
              ln-81    [000] dn.1    39.464701: event2: (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x1c <- SyS_symlink)
