I think it would make sense to make this noinstr rather than NOKPROBES, since
it's also used in the bowels of ftrace, and any instrumentation is liable to
lead to some mutual recursion.

This code must be __always_inline to get the correct caller context, so making
this nokprobe_inline breaks a CONFIG_KPROBES=n build of the kernel.

This also shouldn't be necessary; nokprobe_inline *is* __always_inline when
CONFIG_KPROBES=y.

As above, I'd prefer that we mark these helpers as __always_inline and mark the
main entry point as noinstr.

Thanks,
Mark.
