Mathieu Desnoyers 0e39ac4446 tracing, Text Edit Lock - Architecture Independent Code
This is an architecture independant synchronization around kernel text
modifications through use of a global mutex.

A mutex has been chosen so that kprobes, the main user of this, can sleep
during memory allocation between the memory read of the instructions it
must replace and the memory write of the breakpoint.

Other user of this interface: immediate values.

Paravirt and alternatives are always done when SMP is inactive, so there
is no need to use locks.
