tracing: fprobe: fix suspicious rcu usage in fprobe_entry
rcu_read_lock() is not needed in fprobe_entry, but rcu_dereference_check()
is used in rhltable_lookup(), which causes suspicious RCU usage warning:

As we discussed in [1], fix this by using guard(rcu)() in fprobe_entry()
to protect the rhltable_lookup() and rhl_for_each_entry_rcu() with
rcu_read_lock and suppress this warning.
