Yes, this is not trivial, lets do this separately.

This was of the reasons for "Do not play with utask in xol_get_insn_slot()"
I sent. After this patch you only need the trivial change

        - static unsigned long xol_get_insn_slot(struct uprobe *uprobe)
        + static unsigned long xol_get_insn_slot(unsigned char *insn)

and now you do not need xol_get_trampoline_slot().

However. Why do you need it at all? Let me quote myself:

        Or. Perhaps even better, do not add this helper at all. xol_alloc_area()
        could reserve the first slot/bit for trampoline. And note that in this
        case we do not need xol_area->rp_trampoline_vaddr, it is always equal
        to xol_area->vaddr.

This should be fixed ;)
