The question is, can uprobes be used without uprobe_events? With the
current BPF work that I haven't been following, it may be possible now.
If uprobes can be used without uprobe events, like kprobes can be used
without kprobe events, then I can see having uprobes as a separate config
menu option. If not, then no, it shouldn't be.
