ok

set_orig_insn does that already, right?

so the error value is not exposed to user space in this case,
we try to optimize in the first hit with:

	handle_swbp()
	{
		arch_uprobe_optimize()
		{

			if (__arch_uprobe_optimize(mm, vaddr))
				set_bit(ARCH_UPROBE_FLAG_OPTIMIZE_FAIL, &auprobe->flags);

		}
	}

and set ARCH_UPROBE_FLAG_OPTIMIZE_FAIL flags bit in case of error,
plus there's WARN for swbp_optimize which should pass in case we
get that far

thanks,
