Steven Rostedt (VMware) 8646698aef x86/ftrace: Remove fault protection code in prepare_ftrace_return
Removing the fault protection code when writing return_hooker
to stack. As Steven noted:

> That protection was there from the beginning due to being "paranoid",
> considering ftrace was bricking network cards. But that protection
> would not have even protected against that.

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.
