This patchset fixes a deadlock issue found in concurrent CPU-hotplug and
tracer-toggling testing:
Background: *test_hotplug.sh*
```
#!/bin/sh
while true
do
echo 0 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu1/online
done
```
Test: *test_hwlat.sh*
```
#!/bin/sh
echo per-cpu > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/hwlat_detector/mode
while true
do
echo hwlat > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
done
```
v1 -> v2:
- The previous solution try to make the mutex obtaining in kthread_fn()
interruptible to fix this issue. To make the logic clearer, change to
remove the mutex_lock in this version.
