Keshavamurthy Anil S deac66ae45 [PATCH] kprobes: fix bug when probed on task and isr functions
This patch fixes a race condition where in system used to hang or sometime
crash within minutes when kprobes are inserted on ISR routine and a task
routine.

The fix has been stress tested on i386, ia64, pp64 and on x86_64.  To
reproduce the problem insert kprobes on schedule() and do_IRQ() functions
and you should see hang or system crash.
