Given filp_cachep is marked SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU (and FMODE_BACKING files, a special case, now goes through RCU-delated freeing), we can safely access vma->vm_file->f_inode field locklessly under just rcu_read_lock() protection, which enables looking up uprobe from uprobes_tree completely locklessly and speculatively without the need to acquire mmap_lock for reads. In most cases, anyway, assuming that there are no parallel mm and/or VMA modifications. The underlying struct file's memory won't go away from under us (even if struct file can be reused in the meantime). We rely on newly added mmap_lock_speculate_{try_begin,retry}() helpers to validate that mm_struct stays intact for entire duration of this speculation. If not, we fall back to mmap_lock-protected lookup. The speculative logic is written in such a way that it will safely handle any garbage values that might be read from vma or file structs. Benchmarking results speak for themselves.
