Linus Torvalds e7901af143 This includes fixes for seq_buf_bprintf() truncation issue. It also
contains fixes to ftrace when /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled and
 function tracing are started. Doing the following causes some issues:
 
  # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
  # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
  # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled
  # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
  # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer
 
 As well as with function tracing too. Pratyush Anand first reported
 this issue to me and supplied a patch. When I tested this on my x86
 test box, it caused thousands of backtraces and warnings to appear in
 dmesg, which also caused a denial of service (a warning for every
 function that was listed). I applied Pratyush's patch but it did not
 fix the issue for me. I looked into it and found a slight problem
 with trampoline accounting. I fixed it and sent Pratyush a patch, but
 he said that it did not fix the issue for him.
 
 I later learned tha Pratyush was using an ARM64 server, and when I tested
 on my ARM board, I was able to reproduce the same issue as Pratyush.
 After applying his patch, it fixed the problem. The above test uncovered
 two different bugs, one in x86 and one in ARM and ARM64. As this looked
 like it would affect PowerPC, I tested it on my PPC64 box. It too broke,
 but neither the patch that fixed ARM or x86 fixed this box (the changes
 were all in generic code!). The above test, uncovered two more bugs that
 affected PowerPC. Again, the changes were only done to generic code.
 It's the way the arch code expected things to be done that was different
 between the archs. Some where more sensitive than others.
 
 The rest of this series fixes the PPC bugs as well.
