[PATCH tip/master] [BUGFIX] kprobes/x86: Fix to clear TF bit in fault-on-single-stepping

[Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org>]

Fix kprobe_fault_handler to clear TF (trap flag) bit of
flags register in the case of fault fixup on single-stepping.

If we put a kprobe on the instruction which can cause a
page fault (e.g. actual mov instructions in copy_user_*),
that fault happens on a single-stepping buffer. In this
case, kprobes resets running instance so that the CPU can
retry execution on the original ip address.
However, current code forgets reset TF bit. Since this
fault happens with TF bit set for enabling single-stepping,
when it retries, it causes a debug exception and kprobes
can not handle it because it already reset itself.

On the most of x86-64 platform, it can be easily reproduced
by using kprobe tracer. E.g.

  # cd /sys/kernel/debug/tracing
  # echo p copy_user_enhanced_fast_string+5 > kprobe_events
  # echo 1 > events/kprobes/enable

And you'll see a kernel panic on do_debug(), since the debug
trap is not handled by kprobes.

To fix this problem, we just need to clear the TF bit when
resetting running kprobe.
