[PATCH 3/9] uprobes: allow arch access to xol slot

From: Rabin Vincent <rabin at rab.in>
Allow arches to customize how the instruction is filled into the xol
slot. ARM will use this to insert an undefined instruction after the
real instruction in order to simulate a single step of the instruction
without hardware support.
