Ravi Bangoria 1aed58e67a Uprobes: Fix kernel oops with delayed_uprobe_remove()
There could be a race between task exit and probe unregister:

  exit_mm()
  mmput()
  __mmput()                     uprobe_unregister()
  uprobe_clear_state()          put_uprobe()
  delayed_uprobe_remove()       delayed_uprobe_remove()

put_uprobe() is calling delayed_uprobe_remove() without taking
delayed_uprobe_lock and thus the race sometimes results in a
kernel crash. Fix this by taking delayed_uprobe_lock before
calling delayed_uprobe_remove() from put_uprobe().

Detailed crash log can be found at:

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
