Linus Torvalds 9191423872 tracing: Fix race that causes a warning of corrupt ring buffer
With the change that allows to read the "trace" file without disabling
 writing to the ring buffer, there was an integrity check of the ring
 buffer in the iterator read code, that expected the ring buffer to be
 write disabled. This caused the integrity check to trigger when stress
 reading the "trace" file while writing was happening.
 
 The integrity check is a bit aggressive (and has never triggered in
 practice). Change it so that it checks just the integrity of the linked
 pages without clearing the flags inside the pointers. This removes the
 warning that was being triggered.

Pull tracing fix from Steven Rostedt:
 "Fix race that causes a warning of corrupt ring buffer

[ Heh. This was supposed to have gone in last week before the 6.2
  release, but Steven forgot to actually add me to the participants of
  the pull request, so here it is, a week later   - Linus ]

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
