kprobes: Inverse taking of module_mutex with kprobe_mutex
Currently module_mutex is taken before kprobe_mutex, but this can cause issues when we have kprobes register ftrace, as the ftrace mutex is taken before enabling a tracepoint, which currently takes the module mutex. If module_mutex is taken before kprobe_mutex, then we can not have kprobes use the ftrace infrastructure. There seems to be no reason that the kprobe_mutex can't be taken before the module_mutex. Running lockdep shows that it is safe among the kernels I've run.
