3.16.7-ckt3 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@amacapital.net>

commit 7ddc6a2199f1da405a2fb68c40db8899b1a8cd87 upstream.

These functions can be executed on the int3 stack, so kprobes
are dangerous. Tracing is probably a bad idea, too.

Fixes: b645af2d5905 ("x86_64, traps: Rework bad_iret")
