This is OK because the execution path has been changed to trampoline, but
the above will continue running bar() after sys_uretprobe().

OK.

Because sigreturn() never returns, but sys_uretprobe() will return.
If it changes the regs->ip and directly returns to the original return address,
I think it is natural to send SIGILL.
