In unregister_fprobe function we can't release fp->rethook while it's
possible there are some of its users still running on another cpu.
Ah, OK. rethook_free() invoked call_rcu(rethook_free_rcu) to free the
rethook, and it is possible rethook_free_rcu() is called before disabling
all fprobe, then `rethook_try_get(fp->rethook)` will access fp->rethook
which has been freed.
Moving rethook_free call after fp->ops is unregistered with
unregister_ftrace_function call.
