The sentence still does not parse:

" X waits until Ys that have done Z before A is removed from
the rbtree"

Did you want to say:

" The current unregistering thread waits till all other
threads have hit a breakpoint, to acquire the
uprobes_treelock before the uprobe is removed from the
rbtree. "

(I have removed 'that' and added a comma.)

Thanks,
