Ananth N Mavinakayanahalli 278ff95370 [PATCH] Kprobes: Fix deadlock in function-return probes 
When two function-return probes are inserted on kfree()[1] and the second
on say, sys_link()[2], and later [2] is unregistered, we have a deadlock as
kfree is called with the kretprobe_lock held and the function-return probe
on kfree will also try to grab the same lock.

However, we can move the kfree() during unregistration to outside the
spinlock as we are sure that no instances from the free list will be used
after synchronized_sched() returns during the unregistration process.
Thanks to Masami Hiramatsu for spotting this.
