jump label: Fix deadlock b/w jump_label_mutex vs. text_mutex
register_kprobe() downs the 'text_mutex' and then calls
jump_label_text_reserved(), which downs the 'jump_label_mutex'.
However, the jump label code takes those mutexes in the reverse
order.
Fix by requiring the caller of jump_label_text_reserved() to do
the jump label locking via the newly added: jump_label_lock(),
jump_label_unlock(). Currently, kprobes is the only user
of jump_label_text_reserved().
