tracing/kprobe: Wait for disabling all running kprobe handlers
commit a232e270dcb55a70ad3241bc6fc160fd9b5c9e6c upstream. Wait for disabling all running kprobe handlers when a kprobe event is disabled, since the caller, trace_remove_event_call() supposes that a removing event is disabled completely by disabling the event. With this change, ftrace can ensure that there is no running event handlers after disabling it.
