[ Upstream commit f76fbbbb5061fe14824ba5807c44bd7400a6b4e1 ]

Use the actual return value instead of always -1 if register_kretprobe()
failed.

E.g. without this patch:

# insmod samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.ko func=no_such_func
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.ko: Operation not permitted

With this patch:

# insmod samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.ko func=no_such_func
insmod: ERROR: could not insert module samples/kprobes/kretprobe_example.ko: Unknown symbol in module
