drop_monitor: synchronize tracepoint unregistration on error path

Browse source

If register_trace_napi_poll() fails in net_dm_trace_on_set(),
unregister_trace_kfree_skb() is called to roll back the kfree_skb
tracepoint registration.

However, tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() is omitted before calling
cancel_work_sync() and module_put(). An in-flight probe executing
concurrently on another CPU could call schedule_work() after
cancel_work_sync() has already returned, leaving a pending work item
scheduled after the module reference is dropped. If the module is then
unloaded, executing the work item triggers a kernel panic.

Add tracepoint_synchronize_unregister() after unregister_trace_kfree_skb()
in the error path, matching net_dm_trace_off_set() and
net_dm_hw_probe_unregister().
