Subject: [PATCH v11 3/5] kprobes: kretprobe scalability improvement

kretprobe is using freelist to manage return-instances, but freelist,
as LIFO queue based on singly linked list, scales badly and reduces
the overall throughput of kretprobed routines, especially for high
contention scenarios.

Here's a typical throughput test of sys_prctl (counts in 10 seconds,
measured with perf stat -a -I 10000 -e syscalls:sys_enter_prctl):

OS: Debian 10 X86_64, Linux 6.5rc7 with freelist
HW: XEON 8336C x 2, 64 cores/128 threads, DDR4 3200MT/s

         1T       2T       4T       8T      16T      24T

        32T      48T      64T      72T      96T     128T
   16200682 13737658 11645677 11269858 10470118  9931051

This patch introduces objpool to replace freelist. objpool is a
high performance queue, which can bring near-linear scalability
to kretprobed routines. Tests of kretprobe throughput show the
biggest ratio as 159x of original freelist. Here's the result:

                  1T         2T         4T         8T        16T

objpool:    23926730   48010314   96125218  191782984  385091769
                 32T        48T        64T        96T       128T

objpool:   764481096 1147149781 1456220214 1502109662 1579015050

Testings on 96-core ARM64 output similarly, but with the biggest
ratio up to 448x:
