I'll try to read this code tomorrow, right now I don't really understand
what does it do and why.
However,

This is misleading. It is not about success/failure, it is about filtering.
consumer->handler() returns UPROBE_HANDLER_REMOVE if this consumer is not
interested in this task, so this uprobe can be removed (unless another
consumer returns 0).

Hmm, I don't understand this code, it doesn't match the comment...
The comment says "all the uprobe consumers have only one type" but
consumer_check() will always fail if the the 1st or 2nd consumer has
->handler_session != NULL ?
Perhaps you meant
if (!!curr->handler != !!uc->handler)
return -EBUSY;
?
