Take into account CONFIG_FTRACE_VALIDATE_RCU_IS_WATCHING when validating
that RCU is watching when trying to setup rethooko on a function entry.

One notable exception when we force rcu_is_watching() check is
CONFIG_KPROBE_EVENTS_ON_NOTRACE=y case, in which case kretprobes will use
old-style int3-based workflow instead of relying on ftrace, making RCU
watching check important to validate.

This further (in addition to improvements in the previous patch)
improves BPF multi-kretprobe (which rely on rethook) runtime throughput
by 2.3%, according to BPF benchmarks ([0]).
