kprobes: Prohibit probing on .entry.text code
.entry.text is a code area which is used for interrupt/syscall entries, which includes many sensitive code. Thus, it is better to prohibit probing on all of such code instead of a part of that. Since some symbols are already registered on kprobe blacklist, this also removes them from the blacklist.
