Shift mutex_lock(event_mutex) from print/apply_event_filter to the callers. 2. Change the callers, event_filter_read() and event_filter_write() to read i_private under this mutex and abort if it is NULL. This fixes nothing, but now we can change debugfs_remove("filter") callers to nullify ->i_private and fix the the problem.
