The root cause should be that:
   1. As __tracing_open() being called, function graph tracer is set,
      then graph_trace_open() is called;
   2. As s_start() being called, switch to wakeup tracer, then
      graph_trace_close() is called, here 'iter->private' is not cleared.
      Then wakeup_trace_open() is called, and if graph_trace_open() is
      not called by it due to is_graph(iter->tr) returns false;
   3. As next time s_start() being called, if tracer switched again then
      wakeup_trace_close() is called and it mistakenly close the
      'iter->private' in step 2 which finally causes kasan do the report.

So we may also need to set 'iter->private' to be NULL in
graph_trace_close(), I'll send v2 soon.
