Additionally, the separated code: - Uses the IS_ENABLED() macros instead of the #ifdefs for THUMB2 support - Unifies the two separate functions in kprobes, providing one function that uses stop_machine() internally, and one that can be called from stop_machine() directly - Patches the text on all CPUs only on processors requiring software broadcasting of cache operations Acked-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Tested-by: Jon Medhurst <tixy@yxit.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Rabin Vincent <rabin@rab.in> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk> 
Extract out the code patching code from kprobes so that it can be used
from the jump label code.  Additionally, the separated code:

 - Uses the IS_ENABLED() macros instead of the #ifdefs for THUMB2
   support

 - Unifies the two separate functions in kprobes, providing one function
   that uses stop_machine() internally, and one that can be called from
   stop_machine() directly

 - Patches the text on all CPUs only on processors requiring software
   broadcasting of cache operations
