ftrace: Cleanup regex_lock and ftrace_lock around hash updating
Cleanup regex_lock and ftrace_lock locking points around ftrace_ops hash update code. The new rule is that regex_lock protects ops->*_hash read-update-write code for each ftrace_ops. Usually, hash update is done by following sequence. 1. allocate a new local hash and copy the original hash. 2. update the local hash. 3. move(actually, copy) back the local hash to ftrace_ops. 4. update ftrace entries if needed. 5. release the local hash. This makes regex_lock protect #1-#4, and ftrace_lock to protect #3, #4 and adding and removing ftrace_ops from the ftrace_ops_list. The ftrace_lock protects #3 as well because the move functions update the entries too.
