    Move kprobes examples from Documentation/kprobes.txt to under samples/.
    Patch originally by Randy Dunlap.
    
    o Updated the patch to apply on 2.6.25-rc3
    o Modified examples code to build on multiple architectures. Currently,
      the kprobe and jprobe examples code works for x86 and powerpc
    o Cleaned up unneeded #includes
    o Cleaned up Kconfig per Sam Ravnborg's suggestions to fix build break
      on archs that don't have kretprobes
    o Implemented suggestions by Mathieu Desnoyers on CONFIG_KRETPROBES
    o Included Andrew Morton's cleanup based on x86-git
    o Modified kretprobe_example to act as a arch-agnostic module to
      determine routine execution times:
    	Use 'modprobe kretprobe_example func=<func_name>' to determine
    	execution time of func_name in nanoseconds.
