Hmm, yes, but this also call copy_kprobe twice in try_to_optimize_kprobe().
If you really need the original kprobe information, I think you'd better
change the arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe as below;

/* Pass both of new optprobe and original kprobe */
arch_prepare_optimized_kprobe(op, p);

Thank you,
