[PATCH] kprobes: increment kprobe missed count for multiprobes
When multiple probes are registered at the same address and if due to some recursion (probe getting triggered within a probe handler), we skip calling pre_handlers and just increment nmissed field. The below patch make sure it walks the list for multiple probes case. Without the below patch we get incorrect results of nmissed count for multiple probe case.
