tracing: Have mkdir and rmdir be part of tracefs The tracing "instances" directory can create sub tracing buffers with mkdir, and remove them with rmdir. As a mkdir will also create all the files and directories that control the sub buffer the inode mutexes need to be released before this is done, to avoid deadlocks. It is better to let the tracing system unlock the inode mutexes before calling the functions that create the files within the new directory (or deletes the files from the one being destroyed). Now that tracing has been converted over to tracefs, the tracefs file system can be modified to accommodate this feature. It still releases the locks, but the filesystem itself can take care of the ugly business and let the user just do what it needs. The tracing system now attaches a descriptor to the directory dentry that can have userspace create or remove sub directories. If this descriptor does not exist for a dentry, then that dentry can not be used to create other directories. This descriptor holds a mkdir and rmdir method that only takes a character string as an argument. The tracefs file system will first make a copy of the dentry name before releasing the locks. Then it will pass the copied name to the methods. It is up to the tracing system that supplied the methods to handle races with duplicate names and such as all the inode mutexes would be released when the functions are called.

It appears that the allocation of the proxy_ops and then freeing it in the destroy_inode callback, is causing havoc with the memory system. Reading the documentation about destroy_inode and talking with Linus about this, this is buggy and wrong. When defining the destroy_inode() method, it is expected that the destroy_inode() will also free the inode, and not just the extra allocations done in the creation of the inode. The faulty commit causes a memory leak of the inode data structure when they are deleted. Instead of allocating the proxy_ops (and then having to free it) the checks should be done by the open functions themselves, and not hack into the tracefs directory. First revert the tracefs updates for locked_down and then later we can add the locked_down checks in the kernel/trace files.
