tracing/wakeup: move access to wakeup_cpu into spinlock
The code had the following outside the lock:
if (next != wakeup_task)
return;
pc = preempt_count();
/* The task we are waiting for is waking up */
data = wakeup_trace->data[wakeup_cpu];
On initialization, wakeup_task is NULL and wakeup_cpu -1. This code
is not under a lock. If wakeup_task is set on another CPU as that
task is waking up, we can see the wakeup_task before wakeup_cpu is
set. If we read wakeup_cpu while it is still -1 then we will have
a bad data pointer.
This patch moves the reading of wakeup_cpu within the protection of
the spinlock used to protect the writing of wakeup_cpu and wakeup_task.
[ Impact: remove possible race causing invalid pointer dereference ]
