No,because this time kcb->ss.ctx.match_addr points to the single-step slot,but
instruction_pointer(regs) points to the first instruction of sys_read('ebreak')
so the condition is not token eventually, then we enter kprobe_breakpoint_handler().
bool __kprobes
kprobe_single_step_handler(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
struct kprobe_ctlblk *kcb = get_kprobe_ctlblk();
if ((kcb->ss_ctx.ss_pending)
&& (kcb->ss_ctx.match_addr == instruction_pointer(regs))) {

I will reorganize commit msg, Thanks for review.
