kprobes: Skip kretprobe hit in NMI context to avoid deadlock Skip kretprobe hit in NMI context, because if an NMI happens inside the critical section protected by kretprobe_table.lock and another(or same) kretprobe hit, pre_kretprobe_handler tries to lock kretprobe_table.lock again. Normal interrupts have no problem because they are disabled with the lock.
