Since the ORC unwinder from pt_regs requires setting up regs->ip
correctly, set the correct return address to the regs->ip before
calling user kretprobe handler.
This allows the kretrprobe handler to trace stack from the
kretprobe's pt_regs by stack_trace_save_regs() (eBPF will do
this), instead of stack tracing from the handler context by
stack_trace_save() (ftrace will do this).
