Both in-tree consumers of uprobes (ftrace and perf) are capable of task
filters.

But the thing is, dso:sym is very much not a task property, adding task
filters afterwards sure makes sense in some cases but it should not be
the primary mode.

If people really want to optimize this we can easily add a few bits of
task state which could tell the trap handler to not even bother looking
up things but restart as fast as possible.
