To avoid unnecessarily taking a (brief) refcount on uprobe during breakpoint handling in handle_swbp for entry uprobes, make find_uprobe() not take refcount, but protect the lifetime of a uprobe instance with RCU. This improves scalability, as refcount gets quite expensive due to cache line bouncing between multiple CPUs. Specifically, we utilize our own uprobe-specific SRCU instance for this RCU protection. put_uprobe() will delay actual kfree() using call_srcu(). For now, uretprobe and single-stepping handling will still acquire refcount as necessary. We'll address these issues in follow up patches by making them use SRCU with timeout.
