tracing: Fix race between deleting buffer and setting events

While analyzing the code, I discovered that there's a potential race between
deleting a trace instance and setting events. There are a few races that can
occur if events are being traced as the buffer is being deleted. Mostly the
problem comes with freeing the descriptor used by the trace event callback.
To prevent problems like this, the events are disabled before the buffer is
deleted. The problem with the current solution is that the event_mutex is let
go between disabling the events and freeing the files, which means that the events
could be enabled again while the freeing takes place.
