Guys, can you do a minimum of build testing ?

This one breaks due to uprobe_get_swbp_addr() being defined in both
asm and include/linux when CONFIG_UPROBE isn't set. You don't need
to define it at all in fact, the generic code takes care of both the
declaration for CONFIG_UPROBE and the empty inline for !CONFIG_UPROBE.

I'm fixing that one up myself but please, please, get yourself a test
build script or something to make sure you don't at least break the
build when the stuff you're adding isn't enabled (among others).

Cheers,
Ben.
