Linus Torvalds 7131c2e9bb Probes fixes for 6.7-rc8:
- Kprobes/x86: Fix to emulate indirect call which size is not 5 byte.
    Current code expects the indirect call instructions are 5 bytes, but
    that is incorrect. Usually indirect call based on register is shorter
    than that, thus the emulation causes a kernel crash by accessing
    wrong instruction boundary. This uses the instruction size to
    calculate the return address correctly.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
