tracing: uprobes: Fix slab use-after-free in filter_chain

This commit addresses a use-after-free in uprobe_mmap. It resolves an issue
where unregister_trace_uprobe() would fail to unlink the consumer when a
trace_probe has a sibling event.

[Severity: Critical]
This is a pre-existing issue, but does this code leave a window for a
use-after-free of trace_uprobe during lockless read accesses?

When a sibling probe exists, this code unlinks and immediately frees the
trace probe without synchronizing with trace readers via RCU or shared locks.

For example, when a user queries an attached perf event, it initiates a
lockless traversal:

bpf_task_fd_query()
  bpf_get_perf_event_info()
    bpf_get_uprobe_info()
      trace_uprobe_primary_from_call()

This accesses the trace probe structure without acquiring event_mutex or
trace_event_sem.

Additionally, even if trace_event_sem is held for read, such as during
print_uprobe_event(), unregister_trace_uprobe() bypasses taking
trace_event_sem for write when unregistering a sibling probe (it skips
unregister_uprobe_event() and jumps directly to unreg).

At the same time, if unregister_trace_uprobe() is called, it unlinks the
probe via trace_probe_unlink(). The list removal relies on standard
list_del_init() instead of list_del_rcu(), allowing concurrent lockless
readers to traverse into soon-to-be-freed nodes when free_trace_uprobe(tu)
is called immediately after.

Could this lead to memory corruption when readers access the freed probe?
