ftrace: protect running nmi (V3)

Browse source 
When I review the sensitive code ftrace_nmi_enter(), I found
the atomic variable nmi_running does protect NMI VS do_ftrace_mod_code(),
but it can not protects NMI(entered nmi) VS NMI(ftrace_nmi_enter()).

cpu#1                   | cpu#2                 | cpu#3
ftrace_nmi_enter()      | do_ftrace_mod_code()  |
  not modify            |                       |
------------------------|-----------------------|--
executing               | set mod_code_write = 1|

executing               |                       | ftrace_nmi_enter()
executing               |                       |    do modify
------------------------|-----------------------|-----------------
ftrace_nmi_exit()       |                       |

cpu#3 may be being modified the code which is still being executed on cpu#1,
it will have undefined results and possibly take a GPF, this patch
prevents it occurred.
