Subject: [PATCH 09/14] uprobes: kill insert_vm_struct()->uprobe_mmap()
Kill insert_vm_struct()->uprobe_mmap(). It is not needed, nobody
except arch/ia64/kernel/perfmon.c uses insert_vm_struct(vma) with
vma->vm_file != NULL.
And it is wrong. Again, get_user_pages() can not succeed before
vma_link(vma) makes is visible to find_vma(). And even if this
worked, we must not insert the new bp before this mapping is
visible to vma_prio_tree_foreach() for uprobe_unregister().
