Subject: [PATCH] kprobes: Fix possible warn in __arm_kprobe_ftrace()

There is once warn in __arm_kprobe_ftrace() on:

 ret = ftrace_set_filter_ip(ops, (unsigned long)p->addr, 0, 0);
 if (WARN_ONCE(..., "Failed to arm kprobe-ftrace at %pS (error %d)\n", ...)
   return ret;

This warning is due to 'p->addr' is not a valid ftrace_location and
that invalid 'p->addr' was bypassed in check_kprobe_address_safe():
   check_kprobe_address_safe() {
     ...
     // 1. p->addr is in some module, this check passed
     is_module_text_address((unsigned long) p->addr)
     ...
     // 2. If the moudle is removed, the *probed_mod is NULL, but then
     //    the return value would still be 0 !!!
     *probed_mod = __module_text_address((unsigned long) p->addr);
     ...
   }

So adjust the module text check to fix it.
