Hmm, this seems weird. Should we have any protection here? I mean, is it
ok to call the enable_kprobe() twice? Or should we have something like:

{
int old_flags = tp->flags;
int ret = 0;

tp->flags |= flag;

if (!(old_flags & (TP_FLAG_TRACE | TP_FLAG_PROFILE)) &&
flag & (TP_FLAG_TRACE | TP_FLAG_PROFILE)) {
[...]
}

return ret;
}

Same here.

Or do we want to reenable or re disable the probe?
