Note that this is only for the case of optimized kprobe.
(On some probe points we can not optimize it)

OK, so the sync_core() after int3 is needed to guarantee the probe
is enabled on each core.

I think this 2nd guarantee is done by syncrhonize_rcu() if we
put sync_core() after int3. syncrhonize_rcu() ensures that
all cores once scheduled and all interrupts have done.

I agree with putting sync_core() after putting/removing INT3.

This looks good to me.

For this part, I thought it was same as what text_poke_bp() does.
But, indeed, this looks better (simpler & lighter) than using
text_poke_bp()...

So, in total, this looks good to me.
