Oops, sorry I missed one case.

Since kprobe_events can accept a symbol with module name (MOD:symbol)
If the given symbol is on a module which is not loaded,
kprobe_on_func_entry(NULL, symbol, offset) may return false too.
(But that kretprobe must be enabled after the target module is loaded)

To confirm it correctly, add !strchr(symbol, ':') there to check
it is really bad symbol or not.
