commit e6e133c47e6bd4d5dac05b35d06634a8e5648615 upstream.
Michael Ellerman reported the following call trace when running ftracetest:

This is showing up since OPTPROBES is now enabled with CONFIG_PREEMPT.
trampoline_probe_handler() considers itself to be a special kprobe handler for kretprobes. In doing so, it expects to be called from kprobe_handler() on a trap, and re-enables preemption before returning a non-zero return value so as to suppress any subsequent processing of the trap by the kprobe_handler().
However, with optprobes, we don't deal with special handlers (we ignore the return code) and just try to re-enable preemption causing the above trace.
To address this, modify trampoline_probe_handler() to not be special. The only additional processing done in kprobe_handler() is to emulate the instruction (in this case, a 'nop'). We adjust the value of regs->nip for the purpose and delegate the job of re-enabling preemption and resetting current kprobe to the probe handlers (kprobe_handler() or optimized_callback()).
