When CONFIG_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG is enabled and FTRACE is disabled on
powerpc64, repeatedly triggering the kprobe process may cause stack check
failures and panic.

Case:
There is a kprobe(do nothing in handler) attached to the "shmem_get_inode",
and a process A is creating file on tmpfs.

                            CPU0
A |r13 = paca_ptrs[0], paca_ptrs[0]->canary=A->stack_canary
   |touch a file on tmpfs
   |shmem_mknod():
   |    load A's canary through r13 and stored it in A's stack
   |    shmem_get_inode():
   |        enter kprobe first
   |        optinsn_slot():
   |            stored r13 (paca_ptrs[0]) in stack

   ......

   ==> schedule,  B run on CPU0, A run on CPU1

                            CPU0
B |r13 = paca_ptrs[0], paca_ptrs[0]->canary=B->stack_canary
   |do something...
                            CPU1
A |            r13 = paca_ptrs[1], paca_ptrs[1]->canary=A->stack_canary
   |            about to leave 'optinsn_slot', restore r13 from A's stack
   |            r13 = paca_ptrs[0], paca_ptrs[0]->canary=B->stack_canary
   |            leave optinsn_slot, back to shmem_get_inode
   |        leave shmem_get_inode, back to shmem_mknod
   |    do canary check in shmem_mknod, but canary stored in A's stack (A's
        canary) doesn't match the canary loaded through r13 (B's canary),
        so panic

When A(on CPU0) entring optinsn_slot, it stored r13(paca_ptrs[0]) in stack,
then A is scheduled to CPU1 and restore r13 from A's stack when leaving
'optinsn_slot'. Now A is running on CPU1 but r13 point to CPU0's
paca_ptrs[0], at this time paca_ptrs[0]->__current points to another
process B, which cause A use B's canary to do stack check and panic.

This can be simply fixed by not saving and restoring the r13 register,
because on powerpc64, r13 is a special register that reserved to point
to the current process, no need to restore the outdated r13 if scheduled
had happened.

Does r13 really points to current process ? I thought it was pointing to PACA which is a structure attached to a given CPU not a given process.

By the way, don't we have the same problem on powerpc32 with register r2 ?

This macro name seems a bit sketchy, as far as I understand r0 and r1 also need to be saved/restored allthough they are not handled by this macro.
