[PATCH] Kprobe: multi kprobe posthandler for booster
If there are multi kprobes on the same probepoint, there will be one extra aggr_kprobe on the head of kprobe list. The aggr_kprobe has aggr_post_handler/aggr_break_handler whether the other kprobe post_hander/break_handler is NULL or not. This patch modifies this, only when there is one or more kprobe in the list whose post_handler is not NULL, post_handler of aggr_kprobe will be set as aggr_post_handler.
