This flag is later used to decide whether the location is modified by
ftrace or by kprobe, see https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/3/3/4

Therefore you need to convert the probes and set the flag atomically. By
other words, you need to set this flag at the end of
convert_early_kprobes_on_ftrace() when you still hold kprobe_mutex.
Or you need to take the mutex already in init_kprobes_on_frace()
around both changes.

Note that I check only this aspect of this patchset because it was
affected by my fix of the kprobe recovery code.
