Subject: uprobes: Fix utask->depth accounting in handle_trampoline()
From: Oleg Nesterov <[email protected]>
commit 878b5a6efd38030c7a90895dc8346e8fb1e09b4c upstream.
Currently utask->depth is simply the number of allocated/pending
return_instance's in uprobe_task->return_instances list.
handle_trampoline() should decrement this counter every time we
handle/free an instance, but due to typo it does this only if
->chained == T. This means that in the likely case this counter
is never decremented and the probed task can't report more than
MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH events.
