kprobes/ftrace: Recover original IP if pre_handler doesn't change it
Recover original IP register if the pre_handler doesn't change it. Since current kprobes doesn't expect that another ftrace handler may change regs->ip, it sets kprobe.addr + MCOUNT_INSN_SIZE to regs->ip and returns to ftrace. This seems wrong behavior since kprobes can recover regs->ip and safely pass it to another handler. This adds code which recovers original regs->ip passed from ftrace right before returning to ftrace, so that another ftrace user can change regs->ip.
