Further thinking about it, I think that allocating the virtual address for
poking from user address-range is problematic. The user can set watchpoints
on different addresses, cause some static-keys to be enabled/disabled, and
monitor the signals to derandomize the poking address.
Andy, I think you were pushing this change. Can I go back to use a vmalloc’d
address instead, or do you have a better solution? I prefer not to
save/restore DR7, of course.
