Impact: fix race condition in sched_switch tracer This patch fixes a race condition in the sched_switch tracer. If several tasks (IE: concurrent initcalls) are playing with tracing_start_cmdline_record() and tracing_stop_cmdline_record(), the following situation could happen: _ Task A and B are using the same tracepoint probe. Task A holds it. Task B is sleeping and doesn't hold it. _ Task A frees the sched tracer, then sched_ref is decremented to 0. _ Task A is preempted and hadn't yet unregistered its tracepoint probe, then B runs. _ B increments sched_ref, sees it's 1 and then guess it has to register its probe. But it has not been freed by task A. _ A lot of bad things can happen after that... Signed-off-by: NFrederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NIngo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
