kprobes: Warn if optprobe handler tries to change execution path

Warn if optprobe handler tries to change execution path.
As described in Documentation/kprobes.txt, with optprobe
user handler can not change instruction pointer. In that
case user must avoid optimizing the kprobes by setting
post_handler or break_handler.
