Hmm, with my fixes[1], the kretprobe_trampoline address in the stack will be
replaced with the correct return address. In that case, that behavior
sounds correct.

My another question is that this fix still works correctly on my series,
because it's already merged via Steve's tree. Isn't this break anything?

I also need to know how (from where) the failed test uses stacktrace.
Does it call stacktrace from outside of kretprobe?

Thank you,
