Oh, this should be unified with xol_get_insn_slot(), we certainly do not
want to copy-and-paste it.

Or. Perhaps even better, do not add this helper at all. xol_alloc_area()
could reserve the first slot/bit for trampoline. And note that in this
case we do not need xol_area->rp_trampoline_vaddr, it is always equal
to xol_area->vaddr.

Oleg.
