In fact, the same Oops appears when any probed function is hit, like 
do_nanosleep

/ # echo "p:myprobe do_nanosleep" > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/kprobe_events
/ # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/kprobes/myprobe/enable

Trace/breakpoint trap

In current code, kprobe_handler() will be called by 'program check 
exception' when a probe is hit,
and kprobe_handler() will check whether it is in real-mode according to 
MSR_IR/MSR_DR bit.
When in real-mode(MSR_IR/MSR_DR are 0), the following process will be 
executed to trigger Oops:
__exception() -> exception_common() -> die("Exception in kernel mode")

But for booke arch, the corresponding bits, which is called 
MSR_IS/MSR_DS, are used for switching
the non-privileged and privileged virtual address spaces, and users can 
change both spaces by
setting MSR_IS/MSR_DS bit. So, when kernel in privileged 
space(MSR_IS/MSR_DS are 0), kprobe trap will
meet a Oops.

And also, the MMU of booke is always enabled, so when other trap 
appears, the problem mentioned in
21f8b2fa3ca5 will never met.
