kretprobe: Avoid re-registration of the same kretprobe earlier
Our system encountered a re-init error when re-registering same kretprobe, where the kretprobe_instance in rp->free_instances is illegally accessed after re-init. Implementation to avoid re-registration has been introduced for kprobe before, but lags for register_kretprobe(). We must check if kprobe has been re-registered before re-initializing kretprobe, otherwise it will destroy the data struct of kretprobe registered, which can lead to memory leak, system crash, also some unexpected behaviors. We use check_kprobe_rereg() to check if kprobe has been re-registered before running register_kretprobe()'s body, for giving a warning message and terminate registration process.
