kprobe is not prepared to handle events in real mode and functions
running in real mode should have been blacklisted, so kprobe_handler()
can safely bail out telling 'this trap is not mine' for any trap that
happened while in real-mode.

If the trap happened with MSR_IR or MSR_DR cleared, return 0
immediately.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
