This already hit Linus's tree. I was able to reproduce the crash, so I
streamlined it. I should have still pushed more for your ack first.
Sorry about that.
For some reason, I thought the change was in the generic probe code,
and accepted the probe_mem_read(). Anyway, did you want to send a patch
to change it to probe_kernel_read(), for the merge window?

Agreed.
