So in that case the handlers will be called without preempt disabled?

This seems to skip entier handler if ftrace finds recursion.
I would like to increment the missed counter even in that case.

	if (bit < 0) {

Or, we can also introduce a support function,

static inline void kprobes_inc_nmissed_ip(unsigned long ip)
{
	struct kprobe *p;

	preempt_disable_notrace();
	p = get_kprobe((kprobe_opcode_t *)ip);
	if (p)
		kprobes_inc_nmissed_count(p);
	preempt_enable_notrace();
}

(BTW, here is a bug... get_kprobe() must be called with preempt disabled.)

	}

This may easier for you ?
