Upon module load, we must take the markers mutex. It implies that the marker
mutex must be nested inside the module mutex.
It implies changing the nesting order : now the marker mutex nests inside the
module mutex. Make the necessary changes to reverse the order in which the
mutexes are taken.
Includes some cleanup from Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com>.

The marker activation functions sits in kernel/marker.c. A hash table is used
to keep track of the registered probes and armed markers, so the markers
within a newly loaded module that should be active can be activated at module
load time.
marker_query has been removed. marker_get_first, marker_get_next and
marker_release should be used as iterators on the markers.
