UBUNTU: SAUCE: fix yama_ptracer_del lockdep warning
yama_ptracer_del can be called in softirq context, so ptracer_relations_lock may be held in softirq context. This patch replaces spin_[un]lock with spin_[un]lock_bh for &ptracer_relations_lock to fix reported lockdep warning and avoid possible dealock.
