[PATCH v3 09/15] uprobes/x86: Teach arch_uprobe_post_xol() to restart if possible

[Oleg Nesterov]

SIGILL after the failed arch_uprobe_post_xol() should only be used as
a last resort, we should try to restart the probed insn if possible.

Currently only adjust_ret_addr() can fail, and this can only happen if
another thread unmapped our stack after we executed "call" out-of-line.
Most probably the application if buggy, but even in this case it can
have a handler for SIGSEGV/etc. And in theory it can be even correct
and do something non-trivial with its memory.

Of course we can't restart unconditionally, so arch_uprobe_post_xol()
does this only if ->post_xol() returns -ERESTART even if currently this
is the only possible error.

default_post_xol_op(UPROBE_FIX_CALL) can always restart, but as Jim
pointed out it should not forget to pop off the return address pushed
by this insn executed out-of-line.

Note: this is not "perfect", we do not want the extra handler_chain()
after restart, but I think this is the best solution we can realistically
do without too much uglifications.
