Oops when unregistering kprobes


I noticed when attempting to run my multiprobe test (kprobe-multi.ko) on the stock 2.6.12-rc1-mm2 kernel that only allows a single probe at an address. I know that is is going to fail. However, I got an oops from attempting to remove a non existant probe. Only one of the two probes were inserted, but the code tried to remove both, resulting in the oops for the second kprobe removal. Could we make this more robust so kprobe_unregister can't oops on a bogus kprobe removal?
