[PATCH] riscv: traps: handle uprobe event in software-check exception

Handle the uprobe event first before handling the CFI violation in
software-check exception handler. Because when the landing pad is
activated, if the uprobe point is set at the lpad instruction at
the beginning of a function, the system triggers a software-check
exception instead of an ebreak exception due to the exception
priority, then uprobe can't work successfully.
