Sorry for late reply, but I want to keep the test running right after
initialization as the first user of kprobes at that timing, since
other user can start using kprobes right after init_kprobes().
So this issue must be fixed in moving the init_kprobes() itself
right after arch_initcall() (and that is subsys_initcall)

Catalin, Mark, could you ensure the below patch can fix your issue?

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20190625191545.245259106@goodmis.org/

And if so, Steve, could you push above one (which seems already in your
tree) to next as a fix?

Thank you,
