__kbrobes?

Hi,

I found some functions use __kprobes as directive (like text_poke()).
Closer look points out that it is used to collect them into a section
".kprobes.text". What do we have to do with that? Is that because we
dont want to probe those areas?

If so, why do we want to protect text_poke() against kprobes?

Many thanks,
Jun
