I think this was discussed in here:
  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20230321020103.13494-1-laoar.shao@xxxxxxxxx/

and was considered a bug, there's fix mentioned later in the thread

there's also this recent patchset:
  https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20230517034510.15639-3-zegao@xxxxxxxxxxx/

that solves related problems

right, we count fprobe->nmissed but it's not exposed, we should allow
to get 'missed' stats from both fprobe and kprobe_multi later, which
is missing now, will check
