[RESEND][ PATCH -tip -v9 3/7] kprobes: checks probe address isinstruction boudary on x86

[Masami Hiramatsu]

Ensure safeness of inserting kprobes by checking whether the specified
address is at the first byte of a instruction on x86.
This is done by decoding probed function from its head to the probe point.
