[PATCH 1/2] uprobes/x86: Change __skip_sstep() to actually skipthe whole insn

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sun Dec 30 2012 - 10:47:25 EST


__skip_sstep() doesn't update regs->ip. Currently this is correct
but only "by accident" and it doesn't skip the whole insn. Change
it to advance ->ip by the length of the detected 0x66*0x90 sequence.
