Re: [PATCH bpf-next 2/3] uprobes: prepare uprobe args buffer lazily

Again, looks good to me, but I have a minor nit. Feel free to ignore.

perhaps it would be more clean to pass ucbp to prepare_uprobe_buffer()
and change it to do

	if (*ucbp)
		return *ucbp;

at the start. Then __uprobe_trace_func() and __uprobe_perf_func() can
simply do

	ucb = prepare_uprobe_buffer(tu, regs, ucbp);

Similarly, I think the "ucb != NULL" check should be shifted into
uprobe_buffer_put().
