Module unload is protected by event_mutex, while setting filter is
protected by filter_mutex. This leads to the race:

echo 'bar == 0 || bar == 10' \    |
> sample/filter   |
                                  |  insmod sample.ko
  add_pred("bar == 0")            |
    -> n_preds == 1               |
  add_pred("bar == 100")          |
    -> n_preds == 2               |
                                  |  rmmod sample.ko
                                  |  insmod sample.ko
  add_pred("&&")                  |
    -> n_preds == 1 (should be 3) |

Now event->filter->preds is corrupted. An then when filter_match_preds()
is called, the WARN_ON() in it will be triggered.

To avoid the race, we remove filter_mutex, and replace it with event_mutex.

[ Impact: prevent corruption of filters by module removing and loading ]
