x86/kprobes: Fix crash when probing CS CALL instructionsgrafted

When using eBPF to probe CS CALL instructions within a function,
a crash can be triggered.

The eBPF tool probes offset 257 of the __hrtimer_run_queues()
function:

<__hrtimer_run_queues+249>:  nopl   0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
<__hrtimer_run_queues+254>:  mov    %r14,%rdi
<__hrtimer_run_queues+257>:  cs call <__x86_indirect_thunk_r12>
<__hrtimer_run_queues+263>:  mov    %eax,%r12d
<__hrtimer_run_queues+266>:  xchg   %ax,%ax
<__hrtimer_run_queues+268>:  mov    %r13,%rdi

Which triggers this crash:

  BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: 00000000000f41c9
  #PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
  #PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
  PGD 0 P4D 0
  Oops: 0002 [#1] SMP NOPTI
  CPU: 1 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/1 Kdump: loaded Tainted: P
  RIP: 0010:__hrtimer_run_queues+0x106/0x230

Note that __hrtimer_run_queues+0x106 is __hrtimer_run_queues+262, which is
at the 6th byte of the above CS CALL instruction. Since the CS CALL
instruction occupies 6 bytes, the exception occurred in the middle of that
call instruction.

The root cause is that when using eBPF tools to probe in the middle of a
function, a kprobe with INT3 is used as the underlying implementation.

During single-step emulation of the original CALL instruction,
int3_emulate_call() assumes that the probed CALL instruction is 5 bytes
long. However, the actual CS-prefixed CALL instruction occupies 6 bytes,
so it constructs an incorrect exception return address. When the CPU
returns from the kprobe handler, the next instruction to be executed is at
the address of the last byte of that CS CALL instruction. Coincidentally,
starting from that address, the CPU fetches and decodes a completely
different instruction, which ultimately triggers a kernel crash.

Fix the issue by using the actual instruction length obtained from
the instruction decoder when constructing the exception return
address, rather than relying on the hardcoded CALL_INSN_SIZE macro.

+Mono(tm) Binary Kernel Support for Linux
+-----------------------------------------
+
+To configure Linux to automatically execute Mono-based .NET binaries
+(in the form of .exe files) without the need to use the mono CLR
+wrapper, you can use the BINFMT_MISC kernel support.
+
+This will allow you to execute Mono-based .NET binaries just like any
+other program after you have done the following:
+
+1) You MUST FIRST install the Mono CLR support, either by downloading
+   a binary package, a source tarball or by installing from Git. Binary
+   packages for several distributions can be found at:
+
+	https://www.mono-project.com/download/
+
+   Instructions for compiling Mono can be found at:
+
+	https://www.mono-project.com/docs/compiling-mono/linux/
+
+   Once the Mono CLR support has been installed, just check that
+   ``/usr/bin/mono`` (which could be located elsewhere, for example
+   ``/usr/local/bin/mono``) is working.
+
+2) You have to compile BINFMT_MISC either as a module or into
+   the kernel (``CONFIG_BINFMT_MISC``) and set it up properly.
+   If you choose to compile it as a module, you will have
+   to insert it manually with modprobe/insmod, as kmod
+   cannot be easily supported with binfmt_misc.
+   Read the file ``binfmt_misc.txt`` in this directory to know
+   more about the configuration process.
+
+3) Add the following entries to ``/etc/rc.local`` or similar script
+   to be run at system startup:
+
+   .. code-block:: sh
+
+    # Insert BINFMT_MISC module into the kernel
+    if [ ! -e /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register ]; then
+        /sbin/modprobe binfmt_misc
+	# Some distributions, like Fedora Core, perform
+	# the following command automatically when the
+	# binfmt_misc module is loaded into the kernel
+	# or during normal boot up (systemd-based systems).
+	# Thus, it is possible that the following line
+	# is not needed at all.
+	mount -t binfmt_misc none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc
+    fi
+
+    # Register support for .NET CLR binaries
+    if [ -e /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register ]; then
+	# Replace /usr/bin/mono with the correct pathname to
+	# the Mono CLR runtime (usually /usr/local/bin/mono
+	# when compiling from sources or CVS).
+        echo ':CLR:M::MZ::/usr/bin/mono:' > /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc/register
+    else
+        echo "No binfmt_misc support"
+        exit 1
+    fi
+
+4) Check that ``.exe`` binaries can be ran without the need of a
+   wrapper script, simply by launching the ``.exe`` file directly
+   from a command prompt, for example::
+
+	/usr/bin/xsd.exe
+
+   .. note::
+
+      If this fails with a permission denied error, check
+      that the ``.exe`` file has execute permissions.
