No, because the optprobe is not a function call. I considered to make
it call, but since it has to execute copied instructions directly on
the trampoline code (without changing stack frame) it is not possible.

Even in that case, the problem is that any interrupt can happen
before doing ENCODE_FRAME_POINTER. I think this ENCODE_FRAME_POINTER
in the SAVE_REGS_STRING is for probing right before the target
function setup a frame pointer.

No, since the trampoline code is not called, it is jumped into.
This means there is no "return address" in the stack. If we setup
the frame, there is no return address, thus it might stop there.
(Moreover, optprobe can copy multiple instructins on trampoline
buffer, since relative jump consumes 5bytes. where is the "return address"?)

Hmm, I don't think it is a good idea which making such change on the
optimized (hot) path only for the stack tracing. Moreover, that maybe
not transparent with the stack made by int3.

But above code can fix such issue too. To fix a corner case, non-generic
code may be required, even it is not so simple.
