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.

+ This selects the Simplified Mandatory Access Control Kernel.
+ Smack is useful for sensitivity, integrity, and a variety
+ of other mandatory security schemes.

+config SECURITY_SMACK_BRINGUP
+ bool "Reporting on access granted by Smack rules"
+ depends on SECURITY_SMACK
+ default n
+ help
+ Enable the bring-up ("b") access mode in Smack rules.
+ When access is granted by a rule with the "b" mode a
+ message about the access requested is generated. The
+ intention is that a process can be granted a wide set
+ of access initially with the bringup mode set on the
+ rules. The developer can use the information to
+ identify which rules are necessary and what accesses
+ may be inappropriate. The developer can reduce the
+ access rule set once the behavior is well understood.
+ This is a superior mechanism to the oft abused
+ "permissive" mode of other systems.
+ If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.

+config SECURITY_SMACK_APPEND_SIGNALS
+ bool "Treat delivering signals as an append operation"
+ depends on SECURITY_SMACK
+ default n
+ help
+ Sending a signal has been treated as a write operation to the
+ receiving process. If this option is selected, the delivery
+ will be an append operation instead. This makes it possible
+ to differentiate between delivering a network packet and
+ delivering a signal in the Smack rules.
+ If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer N.
