Thanks a lot for adding uprobes to linux-next.

I am already getting feedback on things to improve.

I have relooked at the commit messages.
Have also resolve Dan Carpenter's comments on git log --oneline
not showing properly.

I have created a for-next branch at git://github.com/srikard/linux.git.
My kernel.org account isnt re-activated yet because I still need to
complete key-signing. I will try to get that done at the earliest.
Till then, I would have to host on github.



Please do let me know if there is anything that I have missed out.
