tracing, Text Edit Lock - kprobes architecture independent support
Use the mutual exclusion provided by the text edit lock in the kprobes code. It
allows coherent manipulation of the kernel code by other subsystems.
Changelog:
Move the kernel_text_lock/unlock out of the for loops.
Use text_mutex directly instead of a function.
Remove whitespace modifications.
(note : kprobes_mutex is always taken outside of text_mutex)
