wait_for_kprobe_optimizer() seems largely broken. It uses
optimizer_comp which is never re-initialized, so
wait_for_kprobe_optimizer() will never wait for anything once
kprobe_optimizer() finishes all pending jobs for the first time.
Also, aside from completion, delayed_work_pending() is %false once
kprobe_optimizer() starts execution and wait_for_kprobe_optimizer()
won't wait for it.
Reimplement it so that it flushes optimizing_work until
[un]optimizing_lists are empty. Note that this also makes
optimizing_work execute immediately if someone's waiting for it, which
is the nicer behavior.
Only compile tested.

Please let me know how this patch should be routed. I can take it
through the workqueue tree if necessary.
Thanks.
