This helper is used to detect if a uprobe'd function has returned
through a setjmp/longjmp, rather than branching to the LR that was
updated previously by us. This fixes a SIGSEGV that gets generated when
programs use setjmp/longjmp with uretprobes.
We use the arm64 model (arch/arm64/kernel/probes/uprobes.c:
arch_uretprobe_is_alive()) for detecting when stack frames have been
removed from under us.

commit 7b868e4802 ("uprobes/x86: Reimplement arch_uretprobe_is_alive()")
commit db087ef69a ("uprobes/x86: Make arch_uretprobe_is_alive(RP_CHECK_CALL) more
clever")
Tested with the test program from:
https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=systemtap.git;a=blob;f=testsuite/systemtap.base/bz5274.c;hb=HEAD
And this script:
$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/bash
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_main_return=main%return
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_funca_return=funca%return
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_funcb_return=funcb%return
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_funcc_return=funcc%return
perf probe -x ./bz5274 -a bz5274_funcd_return=funcd%return
perf record -e 'probe_bz5274:*' -aR ./bz5274

powerpc has both arch_uprobe->insn and arch_uprobe->ainsn to
make the generic code happy. This is no longer needed after
the previous change, powerpc can just use "u32 insn".

prepare_uprobe() already checks if the underlying unstruction
(on file) is a trap variant. We don't need to check this again.

Powerpc has many trap variants that could be used by entities like gdb.
Currently, running gdb on a program being traced by uprobes causes an
endless loop since uprobes doesn't understand that the trap was inserted
by some other entity and a SIGTRAP needs to be delivered.
Teach uprobes to ignore breakpoints that do not belong to it.

No functional changes.
powerpc is the only user of arch_uprobe_enable/disable_step() helpers,
but they should die. They can not be used correctly, every arch needs
its own implementation (like x86 does). And they do not really help
even as initial-and-almost-working code, arch_uprobe_*_xol() hooks can
easily use user_enable/disable_single_step() directly.
Change arch_uprobe_*_step() to do nothing, and convert powerpc to use
ptrace helpers. This is equally wrong, powerpc needs the arch-specific
fixes.

This is the port of uprobes to powerpc. Usage is similar to x86.
