3.16.82-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Masami Hiramatsu <mhiramat@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 0ad45b33c58dca60dec7e1fb44766753bc4a7a38 upstream.

Skip probes if the entry address of the target function is 0. This can
happen when we're handling C++ debuginfo files.

E.g. without this fix, below case still fail.

----
This is because some instances have entry_pc == 0 (see 19710b and
19fc9d). With this fix, those are skipped.
