tracepoint: check if the probe has been registered

Impact: fix kernel crash that can trigger during tracing

If we try to remove a probe that has not been already registered,
the tracepoint_entry_remove_probe() function will dereference a NULL
pointer.

Check the probe before removing it to avoid crashes.
