riscv: kprobe: Fixup kernel panic when probing an illegal position

The kernel would panic when probed for an illegal position. eg:

(CONFIG_RISCV_ISA_C=n)

echo 'p:hello kernel_clone+0x16 a0=%a0' >> kprobe_events
echo 1 > events/kprobes/hello/enable
cat trace

Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack

---[ end Kernel panic - not syncing: stack-protector:

That is because the kprobe's ebreak instruction broke the kernel's
original code. The user should guarantee the correction of the probe
position, but it couldn't make the kernel panic.

This patch adds arch_check_kprobe in arch_prepare_kprobe to prevent an
illegal position (Such as the middle of an instruction).
