I am not sure if systemTap can tolerate this resitriction.

I think it should not exit here without un-registering any thing if temp
is an active_probe. Instead, it should parse the ap->head to look
for the desired multiprobe to unregsiter.

First, destructor or unregistering routine should not return error. Secondly,
-EEXIST doesnot seem to be a proper error code here. When temp is NULL that 
means, there is no such kprobe.

what do you expect from the user in hlist field in multiprobe structure. If
nothing, then IMO, we can have user to provide just the struct kprobe and make
multiprobe structure internal to kprobe mechanism.
