kprobes: disable preempt for module_text_address() and kernel_text_address()
__register_kprobe() can be preempted after checking probing address but
before module_text_address() or try_module_get(), and in this interval
the module can be unloaded. In that case, try_module_get(probed_mod)
will access to invalid address, or kprobe will probe invalid address.
This patch uses preempt_disable() to protect it and uses
__module_text_address() and __kernel_text_address().
