Potentially minor nit: you’re doing popfl, but you’re not doing TRACE_IRQ_whatever. This makes me think that you should either add the tracing (ugh!) or you should maybe just skip the popfl.
Note, kprobes (and ftrace for that matter) are not saving flags for interrupts, but because it must not modify the sign, zero and carry flags.
Uh, C ABI considers those clobbered over function calls, surely. Relying on those flags over a CALL would be _insane_.
