I undid the that change.

The conditional modification of the instruction was part of Rabin's
original work for uprobes, but I messed up the merge from an earlier
working version of my patches. My intention was/is to delete the old
unconditional code. Sounds like maybe you disagree though. The intent
is to only modify the instruction in the kprobes case.
