bpf: avoid rcu_dereference inside bpf_event_mutex lock region
During perf event attaching/detaching bpf programs, the tp_event->prog_array change is protected by the bpf_event_mutex lock in both attaching and deteching functions. Although tp_event->prog_array is a rcu pointer, rcu_derefrence is not needed to access it since mutex lock will guarantee ordering. Verified through "make C=2" that sparse locking check still happy with the new change. Also change the label name in perf_event_{attach,detach}_bpf_prog from "out" to "unlock" to reflect the code action after the label.
