Do you plan to reuse this logic for stack unwinding done by perf
subsystem in perf_callchain_user()? See is_uprobe_at_func_entry()
parts and also fixup_uretprobe_trampoline_entries() for some of the
quirks that have to be taken into account when doing frame
pointer-based unwinding. It would be great not to lose those in this
new reimplementation.

Not sure what's the best way to avoid duplicating the logic, but I
thought I'd bring that up.  
Indeed!  That was on the todo list and somehow evaporated.
I'm getting ready to post an update of these patches, but I want to mention
that this has not been addressed, and I'm replying here to make sure it
stays on the radar.
