ARM: kprobes: Decode 16-bit Thumb hint instructions
For hints which may have observable effects, like SEV (send event), we use kprobe_emulate_none which emulates the hint by executing the original instruction. For NOP we simulate the instruction using kprobe_simulate_nop, which does nothing. As probes execute with interrupts disabled this is also used for hints which may block for an indefinite time, like WFE (wait for event).
