Prateek Sood c5361afa0e tracing: Fix lock inversion in trace_event_enable_tgid_record()
commit 3a53acf1d9bea11b57c1f6205e3fe73f9d8a3688 upstream.

       Task T2                             Task T3
trace_options_core_write()            subsystem_open()

 mutex_lock(trace_types_lock)           mutex_lock(event_mutex)

 set_tracer_flag()

   trace_event_enable_tgid_record()       mutex_lock(trace_types_lock)

    mutex_lock(event_mutex)

This gives a circular dependency deadlock between trace_types_lock and
event_mutex. To fix this invert the usage of trace_types_lock and
event_mutex in trace_options_core_write(). This keeps the sequence of
lock usage consistent.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
