uprobes: Kill UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER flag

Browse source 
Simply remove UPROBE_RUN_HANDLER and the corresponding code.

It can only help if uprobe has a single consumer, and in fact
it is no longer needed after handler_chain() was changed to use
->register_rwsem, we simply can not race with uprobe_register().
