[PATCH 1/2] uprobes: kill xol_area->slot_count

[Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com>]

Add the new helper, xol_get_slot_nr() which does
find_first_zero_bit() + test_and_set_bit().

xol_take_insn_slot() can wait for the "xol_get_slot_nr() < UINSNS_PER_PAGE"
event instead of "area->slot_count < UINSNS_PER_PAGE".

So we can kill area->slot_count and avoid atomic_inc() + atomic_dec(), this
simplifies the code and can slightly improve the performance.
