tracing: Remove taking of trace_types_lock in pipe files
Taking the global mutex "trace_types_lock" in the trace_pipe files causes a bottle neck as most the pipe files can be read per cpu and there's no reason to serialize them. The current_trace variable was given a ref count and it can not change when the ref count is not zero. Opening the trace_pipe files will up the ref count (and decremented on close), so that the lock no longer needs to be taken when accessing the current_trace variable.
