uprobes/x86: Prohibit probing on MOV SS instruction
Since MOV SS and POP SS instructions will delay the exceptions until the next instruction is executed, single-stepping on it by uprobes must be prohibited. uprobe already rejects probing on POP SS (0x1f), but allows probing on MOV SS (0x8e and reg == 2). This checks the target instruction and if it is MOV SS or POP SS, returns -ENOTSUPP to reject probing.
