oprofile: warn on freeing event buffer too early
A race shouldn't happen since all workqueues or handlers are canceled
or flushed before the event buffer is freed. A warning is triggered
now if the buffer is freed too early.
Also, this patch adds some comments about event buffer protection,
reworks some code and adds code to clear buffer_pos during alloc and
free of the event buffer.
