[v2,1/2] kprobes: Prohibit probing on CFI preamble symbol
Commit Message
From: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>
Do not allow to probe on "__cfi_" or "__pfx_" started symbol, because those
are used for CFI and not executed. Probing it will break the CFI.
Signed-off-by: Masami Hiramatsu (Google) <mhiramat@kernel.org>

Changes in v2:
- Check "__pfx_" prefix functions too.
- Make the check unconditional.
