OK, I got the root cause of this issue. Since at the irqentry code,
segment registers are not prepared for kernel yet (e.g. interrupted
in user-mode), so we must not optimize it.
I found we had already checked that by checking __entry_text_start/end,
but that is not enough, we need irqentry_text check too.

Here I made another patch, please try it.

kprobes/x86: Do not jump-optimize kprobes on irq entry code

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

Since the segment registers are not prepared for kernel
in the irq-entry code, if a kprobe on such code is
jump-optimized, accessing per-cpu variables may cause
kernel panic.
However, if the kprobe is not optimized, it kicks int3
exception and set segment registers correctly.

This checks probe-address and if it is in irq-entry code,
it prohibits optimizing such kprobes. This means we can
continuously probing such interrupt handlers by kprobes
but it is not optimized anymore.
