Masami Hiramatsu 9a556ab998 kprobes/x86: Check Interrupt Flag modifier when registering probe 
Currently kprobes check whether the copied instruction modifies
IF (interrupt flag) on each probe hit. This results not only in
introducing overhead but also involving
inat_get_opcode_attribute into the kprobes hot path, and it can
cause an infinite recursive call (and kernel panic in the end).

Actually, since the copied instruction itself can never be modified
on the buffer, it is needless to analyze the instruction on every
probe hit.

To fix this issue, we check it only once when registering probe
and store the result on ainsn->if_modifier.
