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.
