kprobes: Fix to delay the kprobes jump optimization

Commit 36dadef2 ("kprobes: Init kprobes in early_initcall")
moved the kprobe setup in early_initcall(), which includes kprobe
jump optimization.
The kprobes jump optimizer involves synchronize_rcu_tasks() which
depends on the ksoftirqd and rcu_spawn_tasks_*(). However, since
those are setup in core_initcall(), kprobes jump optimizer can not
run at the early_initcall().

To avoid this issue, make the kprobe optimization disabled in the
early_initcall() and enables it in subsys_initcall().

Note that non-optimized kprobes is still available after
early_initcall(). Only jump optimization is delayed.
