uprobes: Rationalize the usage of filter_chain()
filter_chain() was added into install_breakpoint/remove_breakpoint to simplify the initial changes but this is sub-optimal. This patch shifts the callsite to the callers, register_for_each_vma() and uprobe_mmap(). This way: - It will be easier to add the new arguments. This is the main reason, we can do more optimizations later. - register_for_each_vma(is_register => true) can be optimized, we only need to consult the new consumer. The previous consumers were already asked when they called uprobe_register(). This patch also moves the MMF_HAS_UPROBES check from remove_breakpoint(), this allows to avoid the potentionally costly filter_chain(). Note that register_for_each_vma(is_register => false) doesn't really need to take ->consumer_rwsem, but I don't think it makes sense to optimize this and introduce filter_chain_lockless().
