The execution of sys_read end up hitting a BUG_ON() in __find_get_block after
installing probe at sys_read via kprobe, the BUG message like the following:

A simple reproducer looks like:
	echo 'p:myprobe sys_read fd=%a0 buf=%a1 count=%a2' > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
	echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/myprobe/enable
	cat trace

Here's what happens to hit that BUG_ON():

If instruction being single stepped caused page fault, the
kprobe is cancelled to let the page fault handler continues
as normal page fault. But the local irqflags are disabled,
so CPU will restore 'sstatus' with 'SIE' masked. After page
fault is serviced, the kprobe is triggered again, we overwrite
the saved irqflag by calling kprobe_save_local_irqflag(). Note,
'SIE' is masked in this new saved irqflag. After kprobe is
serviced, the CPU 'sstatus' is restored with 'SIE' masked.
This overwritten 'sstatus' cause BUG_ON() in __find_get_block.

This bug is already fixed on arm64 by Jisheng Zhang.
