[PATCH] kprobe: boost 2byte-opcodes on i386

[Masami Hiramatsu <hiramatu@sdl.hitachi.co.jp>]

Hi, Andrew

Here is a patch of kprobe-booster enhancement on i386
This patch can be applied against 2.6.17-rc2.

Previous kprobe-booster patch has not handled any 2byte opcodes
and prefixes. I checked whole IA32 opcode map and classified it.

This patch enables kprobe to boost those 2byte opcodes and prefixes.

Best regards,
