sched/debug: Fix deadlock when enabling sched events
I see a hang when enabling sched events:
echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/enable
The printk buffer shows:
BUG: spinlock recursion on CPU#1, swapper/1/0
lock: 0xffff88007d5d8c00, .magic: dead4ead, .owner: swapper/1/0, .owner_cpu: 1

Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.8.1-20150318_183358- 04/01/2014

Note the hang only occurs when echoing the above from a physical serial
console, not from an ssh session.
The bug is caused by a deadlock where the task is trying to grab the rq
lock twice because printk()'s aren't safe in sched code.
