In certain cases like when the real return address can't be found or when
the number of tracked calls to a kretprobed function is less than the
number of returns, we may not be able to find the correct return address
after processing a kretprobe.  Currently we just do a BUG_ON, but no
information is provided about the actual failing kretprobe.

Print out details of the kretprobe before calling BUG().
