Greetings,

Non kprobe breakpoints in the kernel might lie inside the .kprobes.text 
section. Such breakpoints can easily be identified by in_kprobes_functions and 
can be caught early. These are problematic and a warning should be emitted to 
discourage them (in any rare case, if they actually occur).

For this, a check can route the trap handling of such breakpoints away from 
kprobe_handler (which ends up calling even more functions marked as __kprobes) 
from inside kprobe_exceptions_notify.

All comments/suggestions are welcome.
