uprobes: share the i_mmap_rwsem

Both register and unregister call build_map_info() in order to create the
list of mappings before installing or removing breakpoints for every mm
which maps file backed memory.  As such, there is no reason to hold the
i_mmap_rwsem exclusively, so share it and allow concurrent readers to
build the mapping data.
