kprobes/x86: Check for invalid ftrace location in __recover_probed_insn()

__recover_probed_insn() should always be called from an address
where an instructions starts. The check for ftrace_location()
might help to discover a potential inconsistency.

This patch adds WARN_ON() when the inconsistency is detected.
Also it adds handling of the situation when the original code
can not get recovered.
