yes, and I think it's fine, you get the consumer called in wrong place,
but it's your fault and kernel won't crash

this can be fixed by checking the syscall is called from the trampoline
and prevent handle_trampoline call if it's not

hm the current uprobe 'alive' check makes sure the return_instance is above
or at the same stack address, not sure we can match it exactly, need to think
about that more

the syscall trampoline already updates the regs->sp before calling
handle_trampoline

        regs->sp += sizeof(r11_cx_ax);
