On certain architectures, ftrace can reserve multiple instructions at
function entry. Rather than rejecting kprobe on addresses other than the
exact ftrace call instruction, use the address returned by ftrace to
probe at the correct address when CONFIG_KPROBES_ON_FTRACE is enabled.

As I said, this must be

if (ftrace_addr != addr)
	return -EILSEQ;

This will prevent users from being confused by the results of probing
that 'func' and 'func+4' are the same. (now only 'func' is allowed to
be probed.)

Thank you,
