oprofile: Fix locking dependency in sync_start()

This fixes the A->B/B->A locking dependency, see the warning below.

The function task_exit_notify() is called with (task_exit_notifier)
.rwsem set and then calls sync_buffer() which locks buffer_mutex. In
sync_start() the buffer_mutex was set to prevent notifier functions to
be started before sync_start() is finished. But when registering the
notifier, (task_exit_notifier).rwsem is locked too, but now in
different order than in sync_buffer(). In theory this causes a locking
dependency, what does not occur in practice since task_exit_notify()
is always called after the notifier is registered which means the lock
is already released.

However, after checking the notifier functions it turned out the
buffer_mutex in sync_start() is unnecessary. This is because
sync_buffer() may be called from the notifiers even if sync_start()
did not finish yet, the buffers are already allocated but empty. No
need to protect this with the mutex.

So we fix this theoretical locking dependency by removing buffer_mutex
in sync_start(). This is similar to the implementation before commit:

 750d857c oprofile: fix crash when accessing freed task structs

which introduced the locking dependency.

Lockdep warning:

oprofiled/4447 is trying to acquire lock:
 (buffer_mutex){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffffa0000e55>] sync_buffer+0x31/0x3ec [oprofile]

but task is already holding lock:
 ((task_exit_notifier).rwsem){++++..}, at: [<ffffffff81058026>] __blocking_notifier_call_chain+0x39/0x67

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
