Commit 97f88a3d723162 ("powerpc/kprobes: Fix null pointer reference in arch_prepare_kprobe()") fixed a recent kernel oops that was caused as ftrace-based kprobe does not generate kprobe::ainsn::insn and it gets set to NULL. Add new test case kprobe_insn_boundary.tc which adds a kprobe at every byte within $FUNCTION_FORK up to an offset of 256 bytes, to be able to test potential issues with kprobes on successive instructions. The '|| continue' is added with the echo statement to ignore errors that are caused by trying to add kprobes to non probeable lines and continue with the test.
