[BUGFIX PATCH 2/3] kprobes/arm: Skip single-stepping in recursing path if possible

Show all headers | View raw

Kprobes/arm skips single-stepping (moreover handling the event)
if the conditional instruction must not be executed. This
also apply the rule when we hit the recursing kprobe, so
that kprobe does not count nmissed up in that case.
