kprobes: Fix to free gone and unused optprobes

Fix to free gone and unused optprobes. This bug will
cause a kernel panic if the user reuses the killed and
unused probe.

Reported at:

http://sourceware.org/ml/systemtap/2013-q2/msg00142.html

In the normal path, an optprobe on an init function is
unregistered when a module goes live.

unregister_kprobe(kp)
-> __unregister_kprobe_top
->__disable_kprobe
->disarm_kprobe(ap == op)
->__disarm_kprobe
->unoptimize_kprobe : the op is queued
on unoptimizing_list
and do nothing in __unregister_kprobe_bottom

After a while (usually wait 5 jiffies), kprobe_optimizer
runs to unoptimize and free optprobe.

kprobe_optimizer
->do_unoptimize_kprobes
->arch_unoptimize_kprobes : moved to free_list
->do_free_cleaned_kprobes
->hlist_del: the op is removed
->free_aggr_kprobe
->arch_remove_optimized_kprobe
->arch_remove_kprobe
->kfree: the op is freed

Here, if kprobes_module_callback is called and the delayed
unoptimizing probe is picked BEFORE kprobe_optimizer runs,

kprobes_module_callback
->kill_kprobe
->kill_optimized_kprobe : dequeued from unoptimizing_list <=!!!
->arch_remove_optimized_kprobe
->arch_remove_kprobe
(but op is not freed, and on the kprobe hash table)

This doesn't happen if the probe unregistration is done AFTER
kprobes_module_callback is called (because at that time the op
is gone), and kprobe-tracer does it.

To fix this bug, this patch changes kprobes_module_callback to
enqueue the op to freeing_list at kill_optimized_kprobe only
if the op is unused. The unused probes on freeing_list will
be freed in do_free_cleaned_kprobes.

Note that this calls arch_remove_*kprobe twice on the
same probe. Thus those functions have to check the double free.
Fortunately, most of arch codes already checked that except
for mips. This will be fixed in the next patch.
