The grace period used internally within tracepoint.c:release_probes()
uses call_rcu() to batch waiting for quiescence of old probe arrays,
rather than using the tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() which blocks
while waiting for quiescence.

With the introduction of faultable syscall tracepoints, this causes
use-after-free issues reproduced with syzkaller.

Fix this by using the appropriate call_rcu() or call_rcu_tasks_trace()
before invoking the rcu_free_old_probes callback. This can be chosen
using the tracepoint_is_syscall() API.

A similar issue exists in bpf use of call_rcu(). Fixing this is left to
a separate change.

Changes since v0:
- Introduce tracepoint_call_rcu(),
- Fix bpf_link_free() use of call_rcu as well.

Changes since v1:
- Use tracepoint_call_rcu() for bpf_prog_put as well.

Changes since v2:
- Do not cover bpf changes in the same commit, let bpf developers
   implement it.

should this be call_rcu_tasks_trace() -> call_rcu() chain instead of
just call_rcu_tasks_trace()? While currently call_rcu_tasks_trace()
implies RCU GP (as evidenced by rcu_trace_implies_rcu_gp() being
hardcoded right now to returning true), this might not always be the
case in the future, so it's best to have a guarantee that regardless
of sleepable or not, we'll always have have RCU GP, and for sleepable
tracepoint *also* RCU Tasks Trace GP.

Given that faultable tracepoints only use RCU tasks trace for the
read-side and do not rely on preempt disable, I don't see why we would
need to chain both grace periods there ?

Thanks,

Mathieu
