From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland at arm.com>

commit b3a0c010e900a9f89dcd99f10bd8f7538d21b0a9 upstream.

Currently do_sysinstr() and do_cp15instr() are marked with
NOKPROBE_SYMBOL(). However, these are only called for exceptions taken
from EL0, and there is no risk of recursion in kprobes, so this is not
necessary.

Remove the NOKPROBE_SYMBOL() annotation, and rename the two functions to
more clearly indicate that these are solely for exceptions taken from
EL0, better matching the names used by the lower level entry points in
entry-common.c.
