uprobes: Teach find_active_uprobe() to provide the "is_swbp" info

A separate patch to simplify the review, and for the
documentation.

The patch adds another "int *is_swbp" argument to
find_active_uprobe(), so far its only caller doesn't use this
info.

With this patch find_active_uprobe() additionally does:

	- if find_vma() + ->vm_start check fails, *is_swbp = -EFAULT

	- otherwise, if valid_vma() + find_uprobe() fails, it holds
	  the result of is_swbp_at_addr(), can be negative too. The
	  latter is only possible if we raced with another thread
	  which did munmap/etc after we hit this bp.

IOW. If find_active_uprobe(&is_swbp) returns NULL, the caller
can look at is_swbp to figure out whether the current insn is bp
or not, or detect the race with another thread if it is
negative.

Note: I think that performance-wise this change is fine. This
adds is_swbp_at_addr(), but only if we raced with
uprobe_unregister() or if we hit the "normal" int3 but this mm
has uprobes as well. And even in this case the slow
read_opcode() path is very unlikely, this insn recently
triggered do_int3(), __copy_from_user_inatomic() shouldn't fail
in the likely case.
