Thanks for implement this check!

If "else" block just return, you don't need this "else".
bool func()
{
if (cond)
return ...
return ...
}
Is preferrable because this puts "return val" always at the end of non-void
function.

Please don't put this outside of decoding loop. You should put these in
the loop which decodes the instruction from the beginning of the function.
Since the x86 instrcution is variable length, can_probe() needs to check
whether that the address is instruction boundary and decodable.
