If you make insn_get_branch_addr() return the target of CALL
instructions when this target is between function start and end, it
should work I think.
But like said; this construct is rare and all instances I can remember
should not be kprobes to begin with. These are all 'fun' things like
retpoline stubs and the the above RSB stuff loop.
