This may not be your bug, but your patch exposes it unfortunately.

Sorry for the trouble, we should have caught this.

#1570470 — [PATCH] powerpc: kprobes: fixes for kprobe_lookup_name on BE

From"Naveen N. Rao" <naveen.n.rao@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date2017-01-31 09:10 +0100
Subject[PATCH] powerpc: kprobes: fixes for kprobe_lookup_name on BE
Message-ID<t5BFL-6K3-1@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1570110
Fix two issues with kprobes.h on BE which were exposed with the optprobes work:
- one, having to do with a missing include for linux/module.h for
MODULE_NAME_LEN -- this didn't show up previously since the only users of
kprobe_lookup_name were in kprobes.c, which included linux/module.h
through other headers, and
- two, with a missing const qualifier for a local variable which ends up
referring a string literal. Again, this is unique to how
kprobe_lookup_name is being invoked in optprobes.c
