[PATCH 3/3] early kprobes: x86: don't try to recover ftraced instruction before ftrace get ready.

Before ftrace convertin instruction to nop, if an early kprobe is
registered then unregistered, without this patch its first bytes will
be replaced by head of NOP, which may confuse ftrace.
Actually, since we have a patch which convert ftrace entry to nop
when probing, this problem should never be triggered. Provide it for
safety.
