Oleg Nesterov db087ef69a uprobes/x86: Make arch_uretprobe_is_alive(RP_CHECK_CALL) more clever
The previous change documents that cleanup_return_instances()
can't always detect the dead frames, the stack can grow. But
there is one special case which imho worth fixing:
arch_uretprobe_is_alive() can return true when the stack didn't
actually grow, but the next "call" insn uses the already
invalidated frame.

Test-case:

	#include <stdio.h>
	#include <setjmp.h>

	jmp_buf jmp;
	int nr = 1024;

	void func_2(void)
	{
		if (--nr == 0)
			return;
		longjmp(jmp, 1);
	}

	void func_1(void)
	{
		setjmp(jmp);
		func_2();
	}

	int main(void)
	{
		func_1();
		return 0;
	}

If you ret-probe func_1() and func_2() prepare_uretprobe() hits
the MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH limit and "return" from func_2() is not
reported.

When we know that the new call is not chained, we can do the
more strict check. In this case "sp" points to the new ret-addr,
so every frame which uses the same "sp" must be dead. The only
complication is that arch_uretprobe_is_alive() needs to know was
it chained or not, so we add the new RP_CHECK_CHAIN_CALL enum
and change prepare_uretprobe() to pass RP_CHECK_CALL only if
!chained.

Note: arch_uretprobe_is_alive() could also re-read *sp and check
if this word is still trampoline_vaddr. This could obviously
improve the logic, but I would like to avoid another
copy_from_user() especially in the case when we can't avoid the
false "alive == T" positives.
