Subject: [PATCH 6/7] dyndbg: add locking around zpool-add loop in zpool-init

This commit doesnt improve things, last commit was working, next one
still breaks, despite this "fix".  I keep it separate to isolate it
and the reasoning for review, which now stated, will be refuted as
needed. ;-)

Locking review:

ddebug_zpool_init(), like other ddebug_*_init() routines, does no
locking itself.  Unlike them, it runs later, at late_init.  This patch
doesnt fix the kernel panic that HEAD+1 does.

ddebug_callsite_get/put() are called as a pair under mutex-lock for
all 3 callsite users.

2 of them; ddebug_change() and dynamic_emit_prefix(), do their own
ABBA-ish LGPU (Lock-Get-Put-Unlock).

ddebug_proc_show() does the GP part, and is wrapped by
ddebug_proc_start|stop() with LU.

ddebug_add_module() does LU to protect list_add(), HEAD~1 added
ddebug_zpool_add() loop inside that protection.

This commit adds locking to ddebug_zpool_init(), around the loop of
ddebug_zpool_add(), to match the locking in ddebug_add_module().
