commit eed6e41813deb9ee622cd9242341f21430d7789f upstream.
list_for_each_entry_safe() is only useful if we are deleting nodes in a
linked list within the loop. It doesn't protect against other threads
adding/deleting nodes to the list in parallel. We need to grab
deferred_probe_mutex when traversing the deferred_probe_pending_list.

Hi Greg,
This should apply cleanly to 4.19 and 5.4 if you think this should be
picked up.
