Hello.

Inspired by the recent uretrpobe RFC's. I think it simply makes no sense
to call handler/skip/arch_uprobe_pre_xol with regs->ip pointing to the
"random" address after the task hits bp.

Ananth, could you please confirm 2/2 can't break powerpc? It "obviously"
shouldn't because uprobe_get_swbp_addr() is a "nop" on ppc, but still
your ack is welcomed.

Oleg.
