This patch addresses a potential race condition for a case where Kprobe has been removed right after another CPU has taken a break hit. The way this is addressed here is when the CPU that has taken a break hit does not find its corresponding kprobe, then we check to see if the original instruction got replaced with other than break. If it got replaced with other than break instruction, then we continue to execute from the replaced instruction, else if we find that it is still a break, then we let the kernel handle this, as this might be the break instruction inserted by other than kprobe(may be kernel debugger).
