Subject: [RFC PATCH v4 1/6] uretprobes: preparation patch

  1/6 and 6/6 patches are here to enclose return probes implementation as well
as prohibit uprobe_register() routine with no consumer set.

v3 changes: (the patch is introduced in v3)
  - check whether at least one of the consumer's handlers were set
  - a 'TODO' cap that will be removed once return probes be implemented
