Subject: [PATCH V2] riscv: kprobe: Fixup kernel panic when probing an illegal position

From: Guo Ren <[email protected]>

The kernel would panic when probed for an illegal position. eg:

(CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_C=n)

echo 'p:hello kernel_clone+0x16 a0=%a0' >> kprobe_events
echo 1 > events/kprobes/hello/enable
cat trace

Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack
is corrupted in: __do_sys_newfstatat+0xb8/0xb8
CPU: 0 PID: 111 Comm: sh Not tainted
6.2.0-rc1-00027-g2d398fe49a4d #490

---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector:

That is because the kprobe's ebreak instruction broke the kernel's
original code. The user should guarantee the correction of the probe
position, but it couldn't make the kernel panic.

This patch adds arch_check_kprobe in arch_prepare_kprobe to prevent an
illegal position (Such as the middle of an instruction).
