From bb929284be40cbbdb347690742557d708fd504a9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Oleg Nesterov Date: Sat, 24 Nov 2012 18:27:08 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] uprobes: Kill UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER flag Simply remove UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER and the corresponding code. It can only help if uprobe has a single consumer, and in fact it is no longer needed after handler_chain() was changed to use ->register_rwsem, we simply can not race with uprobe_register().
