[RFC PATCH 1/5] tracing/uprobes: Add busy check when cleanup all uprobes

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Thu Sep 27 2018 - 11:59:28 EST


Add a busy check loop in cleanup_all_probes() before
trying to remove all events in uprobe_events as same as
kprobe_events does.

Without this change, writing null to uprobe_events will
try to remove events but if one of them is enabled, it
stopped there but some of events are already cleared.

With this change, writing null to uprobe_events make
sure all events are not enabled before removing events.
So, it clears all events, or return an error (-EBUSY)
with keeping all events.
