kprobes: fix wait_for_kprobe_optimizer()
wait_for_kprobe_optimizer() seems largely broken. It uses optimizer_comp which is never re-initialized, so wait_for_kprobe_optimizer() will never wait for anything once kprobe_optimizer() finishes all pending jobs for the first time. Also, aside from completion, delayed_work_pending() is %false once kprobe_optimizer() starts execution and wait_for_kprobe_optimizer() won't wait for it. Reimplement it so that it flushes optimizing_work until [un]optimizing_lists are empty. Note that this also makes optimizing_work execute immediately if someone's waiting for it, which is the nicer behavior. Only compile tested.
