ftrace: Add global mutex to serialize trace_parser access

commit 7720b63bce upstream.

In ftrace, the trace_parser structure is allocated and initialized when
a trace file is opened, and is subsequently used across write and release
handlers to parse user input.

The affected handler paths and their specific functions are:
  - Open paths: ftrace_regex_open(), ftrace_graph_open()
  - Write paths: ftrace_regex_write(), ftrace_graph_write()
  - Release paths: ftrace_regex_release(), ftrace_graph_release()

If userspace opens a trace file descriptor and shares it across multiple
threads, concurrent write calls will race on the parser's internal state,
specifically the 'idx', 'cont', and 'buffer' fields, leading to corrupted
input or undefined behavior.

Fix this by adding a global mutex, parser_lock, to serialize all access
to trace_parser across write and release paths, preventing concurrent
corruption of parser state.

Fixes: e704eff3ff ("ftrace: Have set_graph_function handle multiple functions in one write")
Fixes: 689fd8b65d ("tracing: trace parser support for function and graph")
