[patch 5/5] sputrace : use marker_synchronize_unregister()

From: Mathieu Desnoyers
Date: Wed Oct 01 2008 - 12:11:53 EST


We need a marker_synchronize_unregister() before the end of exit() to make sure
every probe callers have exited the non preemptible section and thus are not
executing the probe code anymore.
