Why do we need 2 functions? Can't branch_setup_xol_ops() just use
is_nop5_insn(insn->kaddr) ?

Hmm, why? I mean, why we can't emulate x86_nops[5] if !CONFIG_X86_64 ?

OTOH. What if the kernel is 64-bit, but the probed task is 32-bit and it
uses the 64-bit version of BYTES_NOP5?

Perhaps this is fine, I simply don't know, so let me ask...

I think this will work, but if we want to emulate nop5, then perhaps
we can do the same for other nops?

For the moment, lets forget about compat tasks on a 64-bit kernel, can't
we simply do something like below?
