error-injection: Fix to prohibit jump optimization

mhiramat · borkmann · commit b6b76dd62c56 · 2018-03-12T16:16:00.000+01:00
Since the kprobe which was optimized by jump can not change the execution path, the kprobe for error-injection must not be optimized. To prohibit it, set a dummy post-handler as officially stated in Documentation/kprobes.txt.
