For ftrace to use the patch_instruction code, it needs to check for faults on write. Ftrace updates code all over the kernel, and we need to know if code is updated or not due to protections that are placed on some portions of the kernel. If ftrace does not detect a fault, it will error later on, and it will be much more difficult to find the problem. By changing patch_instruction() to detect faults, then ftrace will be able to make use of it too.
