powerpc/kprobes: Fix null pointer reference in arch_prepare_kprobe()
I found a null pointer reference in arch_prepare_kprobe():
# echo 'p cmdline_proc_show' > kprobe_events
# echo 'p cmdline_proc_show+16' >> kprobe_events

The address being probed has some special:
cmdline_proc_show: Probe based on ftrace
cmdline_proc_show+16: Probe for the next instruction at the ftrace location
The ftrace-based kprobe does not generate kprobe::ainsn::insn, it gets
set to NULL. In arch_prepare_kprobe() it will check for:
...
prev = get_kprobe(p->addr - 1);
preempt_enable_no_resched();
if (prev && ppc_inst_prefixed(ppc_inst_read(prev->ainsn.insn))) {
...
If prev is based on ftrace, 'ppc_inst_read(prev->ainsn.insn)' will occur
with a null pointer reference. At this point prev->addr will not be a
prefixed instruction, so the check can be skipped.
Check if prev is ftrace-based kprobe before reading 'prev->ainsn.insn'
to fix this problem.
