tracing: Fix sched switch start/stop refcount racy updates
Reading the sched_cmdline_ref and sched_tgid_ref initial state within tracing_start_sched_switch without holding the sched_register_mutex is racy against concurrent updates, which can lead to tracepoint probes being registered more than once (and thus trigger warnings within tracepoint.c).
