* [PATCH] ARM: kprobes: Fix false positive with FORTIFY_SOURCE

The arm compiler internally interprets an inline assembly label
as an unsigned long value, not a pointer. As a result, under
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE, the size of the array pointed to by an address
of a label is 4 bytes, which was tripping the runtime checks. Instead,
we can just cast the label (as done with the size calculations earlier)
to avoid the problem.

The patch fixes the issue for kretprobes.  It looks good to me.
