uprobes: Initialize uprobes earlier
In order to have a separate address space for text poking, we need to duplicate init_mm early during start_kernel(). This, however, introduces a problem since uprobes functions are called from dup_mmap(), but uprobes is still not initialized in this early stage. Since uprobes initialization is necassary for fork, and since all the dependant initialization has been done when fork is initialized (percpu and vmalloc), move uprobes initialization to fork_init(). It does not seem uprobes introduces any security problem for the poking_mm. Crash and burn if uprobes initialization fails, similarly to other early initializations. Change the init_probes() name to probes_init() to match other early initialization functions name convention.
