commit a232e270dcb55a70ad3241bc6fc160fd9b5c9e6c upstream.

Wait for disabling all running kprobe handlers when a kprobe
event is disabled, since the caller, trace_remove_event_call()
supposes that a removing event is disabled completely by
disabling the event.
With this change, ftrace can ensure that there is no running
event handlers after disabling it.
