powerpc/kprobes: Disable preemption before invoking probe handler for optprobes
Per Documentation/kprobes.txt, probe handlers need to be invoked with preemption disabled. Update optimized_callback() to do so. Also move get_kprobe_ctlblk() invocation post preemption disable, since it accesses pre-cpu data. This was not an issue so far since optprobes wasn't selected if CONFIG_PREEMPT was enabled. Commit a30b85df7d599f ("kprobes: Use synchronize_rcu_tasks() for optprobe with CONFIG_PREEMPT=y") changes this. Signed-off-by: Naveen N.
