uprobes: Change read_opcode() to use FOLL_FORCE
set_orig_insn()->read_opcode() should not fail if the probed task did mprotect() after uprobe_register(), change it to use FOLL_FORCE. Without FOLL_WRITE this doesn't have any "side" effect but allows to read the !VM_READ memory. There is another reason for this change, we are going to use is_swbp_at_addr() from handle_swbp() which can race with another thread doing mprotect().
