this change uncovered bug for me introduced by [1]

the bpf's kprobe multi uses either fprobe's entry_handler or exit_handler,
so the 'ret' value is undefined for return probe path and occasionally we
won't setup rethook and miss the return probe

we can either squash this change into your patch or I can make separate
patch for that.. but given that [1] is quite recent we could just silently
fix that ;-)
