Mathieu Desnoyers 231264d692 tracepoint: Fix static call function vs data state mismatch 
On a 1->0->1 callbacks transition, there is an issue with the new
callback using the old callback's data.

Considering __DO_TRACE_CALL:

        do {                                                            \
                struct tracepoint_func *it_func_ptr;                    \
                void *__data;                                           \
                it_func_ptr =                                           \
                        rcu_dereference_raw((&__tracepoint_##name)->funcs); \
                if (it_func_ptr) {                                      \
                        __data = (it_func_ptr)->data;                   \

----> [ delayed here on one CPU (e.g. vcpu preempted by the host) ]

                        static_call(tp_func_##name)(__data, args);      \
                }                                                       \
        } while (0)

It has loaded the tp->funcs of the old callback, so it will try to use the old
data. This can be fixed by adding a RCU sync anywhere in the 1->0->1
transition chain.

On a N->2->1 transition, we need an rcu-sync because you may have a
sequence of 3->2->1 (or 1->2->1) where the element 0 data is unchanged
between 2->1, but was changed from 3->2 (or from 1->2), which may be
observed by the static call. This can be fixed by adding an
unconditional RCU sync in transition 2->1.

Note, this fixes a correctness issue at the cost of adding a tremendous
performance regression to the disabling of tracepoints.

Before this commit:

  # trace-cmd start -e all
  # time trace-cmd start -p nop

  real	0m0.778s
  user	0m0.000s
  sys	0m0.061s

After this commit:

  # trace-cmd start -e all
  # time trace-cmd start -p nop

  real	0m10.593s
  user	0m0.017s
  sys	0m0.259s

A follow up fix will introduce a more lightweight scheme based on RCU
get_state and cond_sync, that will return the performance back to what it
was. As both this change and the lightweight versions are complex on their
own, for bisecting any issues that this may cause, they are kept as two
separate changes.
