So in that case the handlers will be called without preempt disabled?

This seems to skip entier handler if ftrace finds recursion.
I would like to increment the missed counter even in that case.

if (bit < 0) {
kprobes_inc_nmissed_count(p);
goto out;
}

if (bit >= 0)
ftrace_test_recursion_unlock(bit);

Or, we can also introduce a support function,

static inline void kprobes_inc_nmissed_ip(unsigned long ip)
{
struct kprobe *p;

preempt_disable_notrace();
p = get_kprobe((kprobe_opcode_t *)ip);
if (p)
kprobes_inc_nmissed_count(p);
preempt_enable_notrace();
}

(BTW, here is a bug... get_kprobe() must be called with preempt disabled.)

}

This may easier for you ?
