[PATCH] tracing/user_events: Don't free an event that a dynamic event still references

[David Carlier]

An eprobe takes a reference on the call of the event it attaches to,
and kprobe, uprobe, fprobe and synth events all refuse to go away while
trace_event_dyn_busy() says such a reference exists. user_events never
checks it, so a user event can be freed under an eprobe:

  echo 'u:test u32 a' >> dynamic_events
  echo 'e:ep user_events/test a=$a' >> dynamic_events
  echo '-:user_events/test' >> dynamic_events
  echo '-:eprobes/ep' >> dynamic_events

The last write drops the reference on the freed call.

Return -EBUSY from destroy_user_event() in that case.

A non-persistent event whose last fd closes while an eprobe
holds it now stays registered after the eprobe is gone. Can follow
up with a retry on the eprobe put if wanted.
