perf event-based attachment is legacy and libbpf will automatically
try to use BPF_LINK_CREATE, so I don't think we need to add this at
all.
But I also feel like we don't really need any special thing for
"exclusive uprobe", because ultimately we just want to let uprobe
override user registers, which we can allow for normal uprobes, as I
mentioned in the other email.
