From f2ec8d9a3b8c0f22cd6a2b4f5a2d9aee5206e3b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Masami Hiramatsu Date: Tue, 14 Sep 2021 23:40:36 +0900 Subject: kprobes: treewide: Replace arch_deref_entry_point() with dereference_symbol_descriptor() ~15 years ago kprobes grew the 'arch_deref_entry_point()' __weak function: 3d7e33825d87: ("jprobes: make jprobes a little safer for users") But this is just open-coded dereference_symbol_descriptor() in essence, and its obscure nature was causing bugs. Just use the real thing and remove arch_deref_entry_point().
