[PATCH 1/5] ARM: kprobes: Reject probing of undefined data processing instructions

From: Jon Medhurst <tixy at yxit.co.uk>

The instruction decoding in space_cccc_000x needs to reject probing of
instructions with undefined patterns as they may in future become
defined and then emulated faultily - as has already happened with the
SMC instruction.

This fix is achieved by testing for the instruction patterns we want to
probe and making the the default fall-through paths reject probes. This
also allows us to remove some explicit tests for instructions that we
wish to reject, as that is now the default action.
