When a program check exception happens while MMU translation is
disabled, following Oops happens in kprobe_handler() in the following
code:

kprobe is not prepared to handle events in real mode and functions
running in real mode should have been blacklisted, so kprobe_handler()
can safely bail out telling 'this trap is not mine' for any trap that
happened while in real-mode.
If the trap happened with MSR_IR or MSR_DR cleared, return 0 immediately.

v3: Also bail out if MSR_DR is cleared.
Resending v2 with a more appropriate name
v2: bailing out instead of converting real-time address to virtual and continuing.
The bug might have existed even before that commit from Naveen.
