We (Facebook) have use cases in production that would benefit from this work, so
I would rather see this gets in sooner than later. After a brief
review (I will more
careful review before Monday), I think this set is not likely to break
existing uprobes
(those w/o ref_ctr). Therefore, I think it is safe to put it in this cycle.
