	Upon module load, we must take the markers mutex. It implies that the marker mutex must be nested inside the module mutex. It implies changing the nesting order : now the marker mutex nests inside the module mutex. Make the necessary changes to reverse the order in which the mutexes are taken. Includes some cleanup from Dave Hansen <haveblue@us.ibm.com>.

2007-10-19	Linux Kernel Markers	Mathieu Desnoyers
	The marker activation functions sits in kernel/marker.c. A hash table is used to keep track of the registered probes and armed markers, so the markers within a newly loaded module that should be active can be activated at module load time. marker_query has been removed. marker_get_first, marker_get_next and marker_release should be used as iterators on the markers.
