kprobes: refuse kprobe insertion on add/sub_preempt_counter()
Kprobes makes use of preempt_disable(),preempt_enable_noresched() and these
functions inturn call add/sub_preempt_count(). So we need to refuse user from
inserting probe in to these functions.
This patch disallows user from probing add/sub_preempt_count().
