[PATCH] Kprobes: Reference count the modules when probed on it
When a Kprobes are inserted/removed on a modules, the modules must be ref counted so as not to allow to unload while probes are registered on that module. Without this patch, the probed module is free to unload, and when the probing module unregister the probe, the kpobes code while trying to replace the original instruction might crash.
