actually.. the idea was to store uprobe_consumer pointers in 'return_instance'
and iterate them on return probe (not uprobe->consumers).. but that would
require the unregister code to somehow remove them (replace with null)

but we wouldn't need to do the search for matching consumer with session_id

also it probably regress current code, because we would execute only uprobe
return consumers that were registered at the time the function entry was hit,
whereas in current code the return uprobe executes all registered return
consumers
