Because trampolines run after the watched function returns but before the
exit_handler is called, and in the original stack frame, so the trampoline
code may overwrite the watched stack address.
These false positives should be ignored. is_ftrace_trampoline() does
not cover all trampolines, so add a local check to handle the remaining
cases.
