tracing: trace_remove_event_call() should fail if call/file is in use
Change trace_remove_event_call(call) to return the error if this
call is active. This is what the callers assume but can't verify
outside of the tracing locks. Both trace_kprobe.c/trace_uprobe.c
need the additional changes, unregister_trace_probe() should abort
if trace_remove_event_call() fails.
The caller is going to free this call/file so we must ensure that
nobody can use them after trace_remove_event_call() succeeds.
debugfs should be fine after the previous changes and event_remove()
does TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER, but still there are 2 reasons why we need
the additional checks:
- There could be a perf_event(s) attached to this tp_event, so the
patch checks ->perf_refcount.
- TRACE_REG_UNREGISTER can be suppressed by FTRACE_EVENT_FL_SOFT_MODE,
so we simply check FTRACE_EVENT_FL_ENABLED protected by event_mutex.
