Subject: [PATCH v3 1/2] ftrace: fix UAF when lookup kallsym after ftrace disabled

Above issue may happens as follow:
(1) Add kprobe trace point;
(2) insmod test.ko;
(3) Trigger ftrace disabled;
(4) rmmod test.ko;
(5) cat /proc/kallsyms; --> Will trigger UAF as test.ko already removed;
ftrace_mod_get_kallsym()
...
strscpy(module_name, mod_map->mod->name, MODULE_NAME_LEN);
...
As ftrace_release_mod() judge 'ftrace_disabled' is true will return,
and 'mod_map' will remaining in ftrace_mod_maps. 'mod_map' has no
chance to release. Therefore, this also causes residual resources to
accumulate. To solve above issue, unconditionally clean up'mod_map'.
Of course, the root cause of this problem is the presence of
ftrace_disabled. The fixes tags patch introduces the possibility of
residual resources in the case of ftrace_disabled. The root cause of
the problem is ftrace_disabled. This patch only adds protection when
ftrace_disabled occurs.
Fixes: aba4b5c22cba ("ftrace: Save module init functions kallsyms symbols for tracing")
