Kprobes on select architectures no longer EXPERIMENTAL
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history 
Based on usage and testing over the past couple of years, kprobes on
i386, ia64, powerpc and x86_64 is no longer EXPERIMENTAL.

This is a follow-up to Robert P.J. Day's patch making "Instrumentation
support" non-EXPERIMENTAL:

Arch maintainers for sparc64, avr32 and s390 need to take a similar call.
