Are you sure about that ? __kprobes puts the code in .kprobes.text section
which is under whitelist sections in recordmcount.pl & recordmcount.c.
> __flush_icache_range is written in asm and no possible ftrace call site.

Yes. It is a known fact. Unfortunately, RISC-V specifications doesn't
allow any other method yet.
I hope the specification is modified to allow some method to sync I/D
cache from S-mode soon.
