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.

+ * Generic net pointers are to be used by modules to put some private

+ *
+ * The rules are simple:
+ * 1. set pernet_operations->id. After register_pernet_device you
+ * will have the id of your private pointer.
+ * 2. set pernet_operations->size to have the code allocate and free
+ * a private structure pointed to from struct net.
+ * 3. do not change this pointer while the net is alive;
+ * 4. do not try to have any private reference on the net_generic object.
+ *
+ * After accomplishing all of the above, the private pointer can be
+ * accessed with the net_generic() call.
