Robert Richter 750d857c68 oprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs
This patch fixes a crash during shutdown reported below. The crash is
caused by accessing already freed task structs. The fix changes the
order for registering and unregistering notifier callbacks.

All notifiers must be initialized before buffers start working. To
stop buffer synchronization we cancel all workqueues, unregister the
notifier callback and then flush all buffers. After all of this we
finally can free all tasks listed.

This should avoid accessing freed tasks.

* This is the core of the buffer management. Each

* global event buffer. Such processing is necessary
* in several circumstances, mentioned below.
*
* The processing does the job of converting the
* transitory EIP value into a persistent dentry/offset
* value that the profiler can record at its leisure.
*
* See fs/dcookies.c for a description of the dentry/offset
* objects.
