powerpc/kprobes: Fix warnings from __this_cpu_read() on preempt kernels
Kamalesh pointed out that we are getting the below call traces with livepatched functions when we enable CONFIG_PREEMPT: [ 495.470721] BUG: using __this_cpu_read() in preemptible [00000000] code: cat/8394 [ 495.471167] caller is is_current_kprobe_addr+0x30/0x90 [ 495.471171] CPU: 4 PID: 8394 Comm: cat Tainted: G K 4.13.0-rc7-nnr+ #95 [ 495.471173] Call Trace: [ 495.471178] [c00000008fd9b960] [c0000000009f039c] dump_stack+0xec/0x160 (unreliable) [ 495.471184] [c00000008fd9b9a0] [c00000000059169c] check_preemption_disabled+0x15c/0x170 [ 495.471187] [c00000008fd9ba30] [c000000000046460] is_current_kprobe_addr+0x30/0x90 [ 495.471191] [c00000008fd9ba60] [c00000000004e9a0] ftrace_call+0x1c/0xb8 [ 495.471195] [c00000008fd9bc30] [c000000000376fd8] seq_read+0x238/0x5c0 [ 495.471199] [c00000008fd9bcd0] [c0000000003cfd78] proc_reg_read+0x88/0xd0 [ 495.471203] [c00000008fd9bd00] [c00000000033e5d4] __vfs_read+0x44/0x1b0 [ 495.471206] [c00000008fd9bd90] [c0000000003402ec] vfs_read+0xbc/0x1b0 [ 495.471210] [c00000008fd9bde0] [c000000000342138] SyS_read+0x68/0x110 [ 495.471214] [c00000008fd9be30] [c00000000000bc6c] system_call+0x58/0x6c Commit c05b8c44 ("powerpc/kprobes: Skip livepatch_handler() for jprobes") introduced a helper is_current_kprobe_addr() to help determine if the current function has been livepatched or if it has a jprobe installed, both of which modify the NIP. This was subsequently renamed to __is_active_jprobe(). In the case of a jprobe, kprobe_ftrace_handler() disables pre-emption before calling into setjmp_pre_handler() which returns without disabling pre-emption. This is done to ensure that the jprobe handler won't disappear beneath us if the jprobe is unregistered between the setjmp_pre_handler() and the subsequent longjmp_break_handler() called from the jprobe handler. Due to this, we can use __this_cpu_read() in __is_active_jprobe() with the pre-emption check as we know that pre-emption will be disabled. However, if this function has been livepatched, we are still doing this check and when we do so, pre-emption won't necessarily be disabled. This results in the call trace shown above. Fix this by only invoking __is_active_jprobe() when pre-emption is disabled. And since we now guard this within a pre-emption check, we can instead use raw_cpu_read() to get the current_kprobe value skipping the check done by __this_cpu_read().
