hi,
this patchset is adding support for session uprobe attachment and
using it through bpf link for bpf programs.

The session means that the uprobe consumer is executed on entry
and return of probed function with additional control:
  - entry callback can control execution of the return callback
  - entry and return callbacks can share data/cookie

On more details please see patch #2.

The patchset is based on Peter's perf/core [1].

v8 changes:
  - split and sepatate only the perf/core patches
  - rebased and reposted to proper ppl/lists

thanks,
jirka
