arm64: Add kernel return probes support (kretprobes)
commit fcfd708b8cf86b8c1ca6ce014d50287f61c0eb88 upstream. The pre-handler of this special 'trampoline' kprobe executes the return probe handler functions and restores original return address in ELR_EL1. This way the saved pt_regs still hold the original register context to be carried back to the probed kernel function.
