tracing/events: fix concurrent access to ftrace_events list
A module will add/remove its trace events when it gets loaded/unloaded, so
the ftrace_events list is not "const", and concurrent access needs to be
protected.
This patch thus fixes races between loading/unloding modules and read
'available_events' or read/write 'set_event', etc.
Below shows how to reproduce the race:
# for ((; ;)) { cat /mnt/tracing/available_events; } > /dev/null &
# for ((; ;)) { insmod trace-events-sample.ko; rmmod sample; } &
