kprobes, x86: Call exception_enter after kprobes handled
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Move exception_enter() call after kprobes handler
is done. Since the exception_enter() involves
many other functions (like printk), it can cause
recursive int3/break loop when kprobes probe such
functions.
