arm64: Remove stack duplicating code from jprobes
Because the arm64 calling standard allows stacked function arguments to be anywhere in the stack frame, do not attempt to duplicate the stack frame for jprobes handler functions. Documentation changes to describe this issue have been broken out into a separate patch in order to simultaneously address them in other architecture(s). Signed-off-by: David A. Long <dave.long@linaro.org> Acked-by: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@kernel.org> Acked-by: Marc Zyngier <marc.zyngier@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
