tracing/user_events: Track refcount consistently via put/get
Various parts of the code today track user_event's refcnt field directly
via a refcount_add/dec. This makes it hard to modify the behavior of the
last reference decrement in all code paths consistently. For example, in
the future we will auto-delete events upon the last reference going
away. This last reference could happen in many places, but we want it to
be consistently handled.
Add user_event_get() and user_event_put() for the add/dec. Update all
places where direct refcounts are being used to utilize these new
functions. In each location pass if event_mutex is locked or not. This
allows us to drop events automatically in future patches clearly. Ensure
when caller states the lock is held, it really is (or is not) held.
