Why not reserve an address space range for this, somewhere near the top
of memory? It doesn't have to be populated if it isn't used.
Because I think poking at a process's address space like that is gross.
If it's reserved, it's no longer the process' address space.
Also, if its fixed size you're imposing artificial limits on the number
of possible probes.
Obviously we'll need a limit, a uprobe will also take kernel memory, we
can't allow people to exhaust it.
