Subject[PATCH v8 3.2.0-rc5 4/9] uprobes: counter to optimize probe hits.

Maintain a per-mm counter (number of uprobes that are inserted on
this process address space). This counter can be used at probe hit
time to determine if we need to do a uprobe lookup in the uprobes
rbtree. Everytime a probe gets inserted successfully, the probe
count is incremented and everytime a probe gets removed successfully
the probe count is removed.

A new hook munmap_uprobe is added to keep the counter to be correct
even when a region is unmapped or remapped. This patch expects that
once a munmap_uprobe() is called, the vma either go away or a
subsequent mmap_uprobe gets called before a removal of a probe from
unregister_uprobe in the same address space.

On every executable vma thats cowed at fork, mmap_uprobe is called
so that the mm_uprobes_count is in sync.

When a vma of interest is mapped, insert the breakpoint at the right
address. Upon munmap, just make sure the data structures are
adjusted/cleaned up.

On process creation, make sure the probes count in the child is set
correctly.

Special cases that are taken care include:
a. mremap()
b. VM_DONTCOPY vmas on fork()
c. insertion/removal races in the parent during fork().

---
Changelog (since v5)
- While forking, handle vma's that have VM_DONTCOPY.
- While forking, handle race of new breakpoints being inserted / removed
in the parent process.

Changelog (since v7)
- Separate this patch from the patch that implements mmap_uprobe.
- Increment counter only after verifying that the probe lies underneath.
