Subject: [PATCHv2 1/3] uprobe: Add uretprobe syscall to speed up return probe

Adding uretprobe syscall instead of trap to speed up return probe.

At the moment the uretprobe setup/path is:

  - install entry uprobe

  - when the uprobe is hit, it overwrites probed function's return address
    on stack with address of the trampoline that contains breakpoint
    instruction

  - the breakpoint trap code handles the uretprobe consumers execution and
    jumps back to original return address

This patch replaces the above trampoline's breakpoint instruction with new
ureprobe syscall call. This syscall does exactly the same job as the trap
with some more extra work:

  - syscall trampoline must save original value for rax/r11/rcx registers
    on stack - rax is set to syscall number and r11/rcx are changed and
    used by syscall instruction

  - the syscall code reads the original values of those registers and
    restore those values in task's pt_regs area

Even with the extra registers handling code the having uretprobes handled
by syscalls shows speed improvement.

  On Intel (11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz)

  current:

    base           :   15.888 ± 0.033M/s
    uprobe-nop     :    3.016 ± 0.000M/s
    uprobe-push    :    2.832 ± 0.005M/s
    uprobe-ret     :    1.104 ± 0.000M/s
    uretprobe-nop  :    1.487 ± 0.000M/s
    uretprobe-push :    1.456 ± 0.000M/s
    uretprobe-ret  :    0.816 ± 0.001M/s

  with the fix:

    base           :   15.116 ± 0.045M/s
    uprobe-nop     :    3.001 ± 0.045M/s
    uprobe-push    :    2.831 ± 0.004M/s
    uprobe-ret     :    1.102 ± 0.001M/s
    uretprobe-nop  :    1.969 ± 0.001M/s  < 32% speedup
    uretprobe-push :    1.905 ± 0.004M/s  < 30% speedup
    uretprobe-ret  :    0.933 ± 0.002M/s  < 14% speedup

  On Amd (AMD Ryzen 7 5700U)

  current:

    base           :    5.105 ± 0.003M/s
    uprobe-nop     :    1.552 ± 0.002M/s
    uprobe-push    :    1.408 ± 0.003M/s
    uprobe-ret     :    0.827 ± 0.001M/s
    uretprobe-nop  :    0.779 ± 0.001M/s
    uretprobe-push :    0.750 ± 0.001M/s
    uretprobe-ret  :    0.539 ± 0.001M/s

  with the fix:

    base           :    5.119 ± 0.002M/s
    uprobe-nop     :    1.523 ± 0.003M/s
    uprobe-push    :    1.384 ± 0.003M/s
    uprobe-ret     :    0.826 ± 0.002M/s
    uretprobe-nop  :    0.866 ± 0.002M/s  < 11% speedup
    uretprobe-push :    0.826 ± 0.002M/s  < 10% speedup
    uretprobe-ret  :    0.581 ± 0.001M/s  <  7% speedup
