The name is not really great...

This means that vma might have uprobes, but since RECALC is already set,
we don't need to set it again. That's different from "has uprobes".

Perhaps something like vma_needs_recalc_uprobes() ?

But I also worry there might be a race where we initially return false
because of MMF_RECALC_UPROBES, then the flag is cleared while vma's
still have uprobes, then we downgrade mmap_sem and skip uprobe_munmap().
Should be checked if e.g. mmap_sem and vma visibility changes protects
this case from happening.

Simpler:
	return vma_has_uprobes(vma, start, end);
