[PATCH v3] uprobes: Use flexible array for xol_area bitmap

[Rosen Penev <rosenp@gmail.com>]

The XOL slot bitmap has the same lifetime as struct xol_area, but it
is currently allocated separately.  That adds another allocation
failure path and a matching cleanup branch without buying any extra
flexibility.

Store the bitmap as a regular array and allocate it together
with the xol_area. The bitmap remains zero-initialized, while the
allocation and error handling become simpler.
