When doing the following command: # echo ":mod:kvm_intel" > /sys/kernel/tracing/stack_trace_filter it triggered a crash. This happened with the clean up of probes. It required all callers to the regex function (doing ftrace filtering) to have ops->private be a pointer to a trace_array. But for the stack tracer, that is not the case. Allow for the ops->private to be NULL, and change the function command callbacks to handle the trace_array pointer being NULL as well. Fixes: d2afd57a4b96 ("tracing/ftrace: Allow instances to have their own function probes") Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
