ftracetest multiple_kprobes.tc testcase hits the following NULL pointer
exception:

 BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

poke_int3_handler+0x39 was alternatives:958:

  static inline void *text_poke_addr(struct text_poke_loc *tp)
  {
          return _stext + tp->rel_addr; <------ Here is line #958
  }

This seems to be caused by tp (bp_patching.vec) being NULL but
bp_patching.nr_entries != 0. There is a small chance for this
to happen, because we have no synchronization between the zeroing
of bp_patching.nr_entries and before clearing bp_patching.vec.

Steve suggested we could fix this by adding sync_core(), because int3
is done with interrupts disabled, and the on_each_cpu() requires
all CPUs to have had their interrupts enabled.
