Honestly, this is another horrible trick. Would it be possible to
call prepare_direct_functions_for_ipmodify() with direct_mutex
already taken?

I mean something like:

	mutex_lock(&direct_mutex);

	ret = prepare_direct_functions_for_ipmodify(ops);
	if (ret)
		goto out:

	mutex_lock(&ftrace_lock);
	ret = ftrace_startup(ops, 0);
	mutex_unlock(&ftrace_lock);

out:
	mutex_unlock(&direct_mutex);
	return ret;

Would be possible to handle tr->mutex the same way to avoid
the trylock? I mean to take it in advance before direct_mutex?
