ftrace: Synchronize the initialization of ftrace_opsgrafted
There's some internal state that ftrace_ops needs to have set, but since it can be declared outside of the ftrace.c code, it calls ftrace_ops_init() on the ops in every global function. The issue is that if two tasks call it on the same ops at the same time it is possible to have the initialization of one corrupt the initialization of the other call. Create a ops_mutex to use to synchronize every initialization of the ftrace_ops. The mutex is taken within checking the ftrace_ops flag that states it was initializied but the flag is checked again after the mutex has been taken. Checking first outside the mutex allows it to shortcut having to take the mutex. But then the check needs to be done again after the mute is taken in case of races.

+UDF file system
+===============
+
+If you encounter problems with reading UDF discs using this driver,
+please report them according to MAINTAINERS file.
+
+Write support requires a block driver which supports writing. Currently
+dvd+rw drives and media support true random sector writes, and so a udf
+filesystem on such devices can be directly mounted read/write. CD-RW
+media however, does not support this. Instead the media can be formatted
+for packet mode using the utility cdrwtool, then the pktcdvd driver can
+be bound to the underlying cd device to provide the required buffering
+and read-modify-write cycles to allow the filesystem random sector writes
+while providing the hardware with only full packet writes. While not
+required for dvd+rw media, use of the pktcdvd driver often enhances
+performance due to very poor read-modify-write support supplied internally
+by drive firmware.
+
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+The following mount options are supported:
+
+ =========== ======================================
+ gid= Set the default group.
+ umask= Set the default umask.
+ mode= Set the default file permissions.
+ dmode= Set the default directory permissions.
+ uid= Set the default user.
+ bs= Set the block size.
+ unhide Show otherwise hidden files.
+ undelete Show deleted files in lists.
+ adinicb Embed data in the inode (default)
+ noadinicb Don't embed data in the inode
+ shortad Use short ad's
+ longad Use long ad's (default)
+ nostrict Unset strict conformance
+ iocharset= Set the NLS character set
+ =========== ======================================
+
+The uid= and gid= options need a bit more explaining. They will accept a
+decimal numeric value and all inodes on that mount will then appear as
+belonging to that uid and gid. Mount options also accept the string "forget".
+The forget option causes all IDs to be written to disk as -1 which is a way
+of UDF standard to indicate that IDs are not supported for these files .
+
+For typical desktop use of removable media, you should set the ID to that of
+the interactively logged on user, and also specify the forget option. This way
+the interactive user will always see the files on the disk as belonging to him.
+
+The remaining are for debugging and disaster recovery:
+
+ ===== ================================
+ novrs Skip volume sequence recognition
+ ===== ================================
+
+The following expect a offset from 0.
+
+ ========== =================================================
+ session= Set the CDROM session (default= last session)
+ anchor= Override standard anchor location. (default= 256)
+ lastblock= Set the last block of the filesystem/
+ ========== =================================================
