Linus Torvalds 22d368544b A few more fixes for ftrace infrastructure.
I was cleaning out my INBOX and found two fixes from zhangwei from
 a year ago that were lost in my mail. These fix an inconsistency between
 trace_puts() and the way trace_printk() works. The reason this is
 important to fix is because when trace_printk() doesn't have any
 arguments, it turns into a trace_puts(). Not being able to enable a
 stack trace against trace_printk() because it does not have any arguments
 is quite confusing. Also, the fix is rather trivial and low risk.
 
 While porting some changes to PowerPC I discovered that it still has
 the function graph tracer filter bug that if you also enable stack tracing
 the function graph tracer filter is ignored. I fixed that up.
 
 Finally, Martin Lau, fixed a bug that would cause readers of the
 ftrace ring buffer to block forever even though it was suppose to be
 NONBLOCK.

 "A few more fixes for ftrace infrastructure.

This also includes the fix from an earlier pull request:

 "Oleg Nesterov fixed a memory leak that happens if a user creates a
  tracing instance, sets up a filter in an event, and then removes that
  instance.  The filter allocates memory that is never freed when the
  instance is destroyed"
