This is inspired by an old fix I did [1] that never resulted necessary [2] since it was fixed on the kernel side prior to making a sysdig release. It seems like the kernel now converged towards my same hack [3], so reintroduce it here as well. I'm also not filtering for specific LINUX_VERSION_CODE since some of this new asm_volatile_goto usages might be backported into some stable releases, and it really doesn't hurt having it unconditionally enabled.
