kprobes: refuse kprobe insertion on add/sub_preempt_counter() Kprobes makes use of preempt_disable(),preempt_enable_noresched() and these functions inturn call add/sub_preempt_count(). So we need to refuse user from inserting probe in to these functions. This patch disallows user from probing add/sub_preempt_count().
