[PATCH] Notify page fault call chain
With this patch Kprobes now registers for page fault notifications only when their is an active probe registered. Once all the active probes are unregistered their is no need to be notified of page faults and kprobes unregisters itself from the page fault notifications. Hence we will have ZERO side effects when no probes are active.
