Forgot to mention... This probably needs another patch to handle the special case, vfork(). In this case it would be more correct to dup return_instances but (obviously) avoid dup_xol_area. However I think this is not that important, the child should not "unwind" the stack if it shares mm/stack with its parent, otherwise it can corrupt the parent's stack. So I think that this change (which needs to pass "clone_flags" to uprobe_copy_process) is not the stable material. But I'll update the changelog in 4/5 to explain that "mm == t->mm" check should be updated.
