powerpc/kprobes: Do not disable interrupts for optprobes and kprobes_on_ftrace
Per Documentation/kprobes.txt, we don't necessarily need to disable interrupts before invoking the kprobe handlers. Masami submitted similar changes for x86 via commit a19b2e3d783964 ("kprobes/x86: Remove IRQ disabling from ftrace-based/optimized kprobes"). Do the same for powerpc. Signed-off-by: Naveen N. Rao <naveen.n.rao@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
