This looks good to me. Except for a small confirmation below:

Just want to make sure that you've confirmed that this is what happens
with a regular trap/brk based kprobe on ARM64. The reason for setting
the instruction pointer here is to ensure that it is set to the same
value as would be set if there was a trap/brk instruction at the ftrace
location. This ensures that the kprobe pre handler sees the same value
regardless.
Further changes to the instruction pointer are to achieve the same
effect for kprobe post handlers.
