Linus Torvalds ebc27aacee Tracing fixes and clean ups:
- Fix some missing-prototype warnings
 
 - Fix user events struct args (did not include size of struct)
   When creating a user event, the "struct" keyword is to denote
   that the size of the field will be passed in. But the parsing
   failed to handle this case.
 
 - Add selftest to struct sizes for user events
 
 - Fix sample code for direct trampolines.
   The sample code for direct trampolines attached to handle_mm_fault().
   But the prototype changed and the direct trampoline sample code
   was not updated. Direct trampolines needs to have the arguments correct
   otherwise it can fail or crash the system.
 
 - Remove unused ftrace_regs_caller_ret() prototype.
 
 - Quiet false positive of FORTIFY_SOURCE
   Due to backward compatibility, the structure used to save stack traces
   in the kernel had a fixed size of 8. This structure is exported to
   user space via the tracing format file. A change was made to allow
   more than 8 functions to be recorded, and user space now uses the
   size field to know how many functions are actually in the stack.
   But the structure still has size of 8 (even though it points into
   the ring buffer that has the required amount allocated to hold a
   full stack. This was fine until the fortifier noticed that the
   memcpy(&entry->caller, stack, size) was greater than the 8 functions
   and would complain at runtime about it. Hide this by using a pointer
   to the stack location on the ring buffer instead of using the address
   of the entry structure caller field.
 
 - Fix a deadloop in reading trace_pipe that was caused by a mismatch
   between ring_buffer_empty() returning false which then asked to
   read the data, but the read code uses rb_num_of_entries() that
   returned zero, and causing a infinite "retry".
 
 - Fix a warning caused by not using all pages allocated to store
   ftrace functions, where this can happen if the linker inserts a bunch of
   "NULL" entries, causing the accounting of how many pages needed
   to be off.
 
 - Fix histogram synthetic event crashing when the start event is
   removed and the end event is still using a variable from it.
 
 - Fix memory leak in freeing iter->temp in tracing_release_pipe()
