tracing: Fix lock imbalance in s_start() memory allocation failure path

When s_start() fails to allocate memory for set_event_iter, it returns NULL
before acquiring event_mutex. However, the corresponding s_stop() function
always tries to unlock the mutex, causing a lock imbalance warning:

  WARNING: bad unlock balance detected!
  6.17.0-rc7-00175-g2b2e0c04f78c #7 Not tainted
  -------------------------------------
  syz.0.85611/376514 is trying to release lock (event_mutex) at:
  [<ffffffff8dafc7a4>] traverse.part.0.constprop.0+0x2c4/0x650 fs/seq_file.c:131
  but there are no more locks to release!

The issue was introduced by commit b355247df104 ("tracing: Cache ':mod:'
events for modules not loaded yet") which added the kzalloc() allocation before
the mutex lock, creating a path where s_start() could return without locking
the mutex while s_stop() would still try to unlock it.

Fix this by unconditionally acquiring the mutex immediately after allocation,
regardless of whether the allocation succeeded.
