Make the control flow of kprobe_handler more obvious.

Collapse the separate if blocks/gotos with if/else blocks
this unifies the duplication of the check for a breakpoint
instruction race with another cpu.

Masami, please have a look at this, I think it's much more obvious
written this way.  The way the old code fell through or not was rather
non-obvious.  Some further work eliminating the nested returns and
creating a out: and preempt_out: target at the end of the function
would make it easier to notice preempt imbalances in later  changes.
