+ * insn_page is a special 4k aligned dummy function for kprobes.
+ * It will contain all kprobed instructions that are out-of-line executed.
+ * The page must be within the kernel image to guarantee that the
+ * out-of-line instructions are within 2GB distance of their original
+ * location. Using a dummy function ensures that the insn_page is within
+ * the text section of the kernel and mapped read-only/executable from
+ * the beginning on, thus avoiding to split large mappings if the page
+ * would be in the data section instead.
