[PATCH 1/2] ftrace: Update ftrace_ops->next pointer with rcu_assign_pointer()

[Li Huafei]

The unregistered ftrace_ops may be freed by the caller, so we should use
rcu_assign_pointer() in remove_ftrace_ops() to remove the ftrace_ops,
which ensures that no more users will reference the ftrace_ops after
synchronize_rcu() is called.
