Add synchronize_rcu() after list_del_rcu() in
ftrace_remove_trampoline_from_kallsyms() to protect readers of
ftrace_ops_trampoline_list (in ftrace_get_trampoline_kallsym)
which is used when kallsyms is read.

Hurmph, we've just done a ton of that:


	ftrace_shutdown()
	  synchronize_rcu_tasks_rude()
	  ftrace_trampoline_free()
	    ftrace_remove_trampoline_from_kallsyms()


So would it not be better to move that call before the existing
synchronize_rcu_tasks stuff rather than adding another synchronize_rcu()
call?

Doesn't that mean removing the symbol while the trampoline is potentially
still in use?

Could follow up the fix with a patch to allocate list nodes instead, and use
call_rcu() to free it, so another synchronize_rcu() is not needed.

Hurm.. potentially yes. OK, lets do this first.

OK, I queued this up to be tested and sent out for urgent.
