Before commit 0bc11ed5ab60 ("kprobes: Allow kprobes coexist with livepatch"), it's very easy to trigger this problem. The kprobe has other problems and is communicating with Masami. With this fix, whenever an error is returned after add_kprobe_event_legacy(), this guarantees cleanup of the kprobe event.
