Thomas discovered a bug where the kprobe trace tests had a race condition where the kprobe_optimizer called from a delayed work queue that does the optimizing and "unoptimizing" of a kprobe, can try to modify the text after it has been freed by the init code. The kprobe trace selftest is a special case, and Thomas and myself investigated to see if there's a chance that this could also be a bug with module unloading, as the code is not obvious to how it handles this. After adding lots of printks, I figured it out. Thomas suggested that this should be commented so that others will not have to go through this exercise again.

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.
