uprobes: Kill set_orig_insn()->is_swbp_at_addr()
Unlike set_swbp(), set_orig_insn()->is_swbp_at_addr() makes sense, although it can't prevent all confusions. But the usage of is_swbp_at_addr() is equally confusing, and it adds the extra get_user_pages() we can avoid. This patch removes set_orig_insn()->is_swbp_at_addr() but changes write_opcode() to do the necessary checks before replace_page(). Perhaps it also makes sense to ensure PAGE_MAPPING_ANON in unregister case. find_active_uprobe() becomes the only user of is_swbp_at_addr(), we can change its semantics.
