Fabian Vogt 9e68bd803f riscv: kprobes: Fix probe address validation
When adding a kprobe such as "p:probe/tcp_sendmsg _text+15392192",
arch_check_kprobe would start iterating all instructions starting from
_text until the probed address. Not only is this very inefficient, but
literal values in there (e.g. left by function patching) are
misinterpreted in a way that causes a desync.

Fix this by doing it like x86: start the iteration at the closest
preceding symbol instead of the given starting point.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
