I can still reproduce on 4.6.0-rc1.
Not sure what's going on?
Try disabling CONFIG_FUNCTION_TRACER. The test failure happens when .kr=
etprobe_trampoline_holder and
kretprobe_trampoline have the same address. If that option is enabled, =
the symbols have different addresses:
$ eu-readelf -s /boot/vmlinux-4.6.0-rc1-dirty | grep kretprobe_tramp =
