This change only works with x86. On other archs, I get this:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `register_kprobe':
(.kprobes.text+0x9f4): undefined reference to `__entry_text_start'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `register_kprobe':
(.kprobes.text+0x9f8): undefined reference to `__entry_text_end'
make[1]: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
