Alexei Starovoitov dead9f29dd perf: Fix race in BPF program unregister
there is a race between perf_event_free_bpf_prog() and free_trace_kprobe():

	__free_event()
	  event->destroy(event)
	    tp_perf_event_destroy()
	      perf_trace_destroy()
		perf_trace_event_unreg()

which is dropping event->tp_event->perf_refcount and allows to proceed in:

	unregister_trace_kprobe()
	  unregister_kprobe_event()
	      trace_remove_event_call()
		    probe_remove_event_call()
	free_trace_kprobe()

while __free_event does:

	call_rcu(&event->rcu_head, free_event_rcu);
	  free_event_rcu()
	    perf_event_free_bpf_prog()

To fix the race simply move perf_event_free_bpf_prog() before
event->destroy(), since event->tp_event is still valid at that point.

Note, perf_trace_destroy() is not racing with trace_remove_event_call()
since they both grab event_mutex.
