Fix: lttng-modules teardown NULL pointer OOPS

Accessing the lttng channel and lttng session from the metadata ring
buffer client is a bad idea, because we don't have any reference
ensuring those are valid for the lifetime of the metadata cache.
Therefore, rather than keeping a lttng channel as private data pointer
for the metadata ring buffer channel, keep a pointer to the metadata
cache instead: this will ensure we don't shoot ourself in the foot and
access data we for which coherency is not guaranteed (we don't hold any
reference to it).

Anyway, the only reason why we needed to access the lttng session from
the metadata client in the first place was the UUID of the session. Copy
it into the metadata cache instead.

Fix: handle concurrent flush vs get_next_subbuf on metadata cache

The "flush" operation can be performed on the metadata file descriptor
concurrently with get_next_subbuffer operations by different processes
(e.g. lttng session daemon issuing flush at "stop" concurrently with
consumer daemon issuing get_next_subbuf for metadata I/O). We need
to protect the metadata cache from those concurrent use by introducing a
mutex.

This fixes a race where metadata from a kernel trace is corrupted due to
this scenario. The corruption shows up like the same metadata content (a
metadata packet) being written twice consecutively in the metadata
stream, thus triggering a babeltrace "parse error" when trying to read
the trace.

Fix: noargs probes should calculate alignment and event length

A noargs probe could have event fields. noargs just means that the probe
does not receive any argument as parameter. However, it could very well
serialize data into fields (global variables, constants, etc).

It just happens that LTTng does not serialize any data in noargs events
at the moment, but this may very well change.

The if (0) with (void) variable access strategy to stop compiler from
complaining from unused variables does not seem to work as expected with
gcc 4.9.1. Use "unused" attribute instead.

Fix: statedump: check whether "files" is NULL, RCU semantic fix

We need to check if p->files is NULL before passing it to
files_fdtable(). Moreover, since the fdt is now protected by RCU, we
have to assume it can change between the read from
lttng_enumerate_task_fd() and the internal in-kernel read in
iterate_fd(). Therefore, move this rcu dereference into
lttng_dump_one_fd(), and perform the appropriate checks on max fds.
