kprobes: remove dependency on CONFIG_MODULES
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
kprobes depended on CONFIG_MODULES because it has to allocate memory for
code.

Since code allocations are now implemented with execmem, kprobes can be
enabled in non-modular kernels.

Add #ifdef CONFIG_MODULE guards for the code dealing with kprobes inside
modules, make CONFIG_KPROBES select CONFIG_EXECMEM and drop the
dependency of CONFIG_KPROBES on CONFIG_MODULES.
