The opaque plumbing of #GP from do_general_protection() through
notify_die() into kprobe_exceptions_notify() makes it hard to understand
what's going on.

OK, this seems reasonable optimization, since kprobe_exceptions_notify
only handles DIE_GPF now.

Hmm, I think I should introduce ARCH_KPROBE_HANDLE_EXCEPTION and if it
is enabled, kernel/kprobes.c stops using exception notifier. It is
no more needed on x86.

Thank you!
