Commit:
72e6ae285a1d ('ARM: 8043/1: uprobes need icache flush after xol write'
... has introduced an arch-specific method to ensure all caches are
flushed appropriately after an instruction is written to an XOL page.
However, when the XOL area is created and the out-of-line breakpoint
instruction is copied, caches are not flushed at all and stale data may
be found in icache.
Replace a simple copy_to_page() with arch_uprobe_copy_ixol() to allow
the arch to ensure all caches are updated accordingly.
This change fixes uprobes on MIPS InterAptiv (tested on Creator Ci40).

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
