Subject:    [PATCH v2 2/7] x86: inline kprobe_exceptions_notify() into do_general_protection()
From:       Jann Horn <jannh () google ! com>

[Download RAW message or body]

The opaque plumbing of #GP from do_general_protection() through
notify_die() into kprobe_exceptions_notify() makes it hard to understand
what's going on.
