[Bugfix] unregister_trace_probe needs to be called under mutex

[Srikar Dronamraju]

Comment in unregister_trace_probe() says probe_lock will be held
when it gets called. However there is a case where it might called
without the probe_lock being held. Also since we are traversing the
probe_list and deleting an element from the probe_list, probe_lock
should be held.

This was first pointed in uprobes traceevent review by Frederic
Weisbecker here.  (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/5/12/106)

This patch is needed for both 2.6.35-rc3 and 2.6.35-rc3-tip
