Handle the uprobe event first before handling the CFI violation in
software-check exception handler. Because when the landing pad is
activated, if the uprobe point is set at the lpad instruction at
the beginning of a function, the system triggers a software-check
exception instead of an ebreak exception due to the exception
priority, then uprobe can't work successfully.

Deepak, can you take this patch in your next spin of your CFI series? Otherwise, I'm pretty sure we will forget about it :)
