2 nits:
why do we need to reset ret before out label? I think its redudant.
arch_uprobe_analyze_insn() should have set it to 0 already. No?

blank line above out:

Currently only extern functions start with uprobe_ but we already have
copy_insn, and __copy_insn, So can think of any names for
uprobe_copy_insn. Not sure test_and_copy_insn() is a good alternative.
