From: Masami Hiramatsu mhiramat@kernel.org
[ Upstream commit 5bb4fc2d8641219732eb2bb654206775a4219aca ]
Disable preemption in ftrace-based jprobe handlers as described in Documentation/kprobes.txt:
"Probe handlers are run with preemption disabled."
This will fix jprobes behavior when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y.
