perf: Fix ring_buffer_attach() RCU sync, again
While looking for other users of get_state/cond_sync. I Found
ring_buffer_attach() and it looks obviously buggy?
Don't we need to ensure that we have "synchronize" _between_
list_del() and list_add() ?
IOW. Suppose that ring_buffer_attach() preempts right_after
get_state_synchronize_rcu() and gp completes before spin_lock().
In this case cond_synchronize_rcu() does nothing and we reuse
->rb_entry without waiting for gp in between?
It also moves the ->rcu_pending check under "if (rb)", to make it
more readable imo.
