uprobes: Change handle_trampoline() to flush the frames invalidated b…

…y longjmp()

Test-case:

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

	jmp_buf jmp;

	void func_2(void)
	{
		longjmp(jmp, 1);
	}

	void func_1(void)
	{
		if (setjmp(jmp))
			return;
		func_2();
		printf("ERR!! I am running on the caller's stack\n");
	}

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

fails if you probe func_1() and func_2() because
handle_trampoline() assumes that the probed function should must
return and hit the bp installed be prepare_uretprobe(). But in
this case func_2() does not return, so when func_1() returns the
kernel uses the no longer valid return_instance of func_2().

Change handle_trampoline() to unwind ->return_instances until we
know that the next chain is alive or NULL, this ensures that the
current chain is the last we need to report and free.

Alternatively, every return_instance could use unique
trampoline_vaddr, in this case we could use it as a key. And
this could solve the problem with sigaltstack() automatically.

But this approach needs more changes, and it puts the "hard"
limit on MAX_URETPROBE_DEPTH. Plus it can not solve another
problem partially fixed by the next patch.

Note: this change has no effect on !x86, the arch-agnostic
version of arch_uretprobe_is_alive() just returns "true".

TODO: as documented by the previous change, arch_uretprobe_is_alive()
      can be fooled by sigaltstack/etc.
