Eiichi Tsukata f01098c74b tracing/uprobe: Fix NULL pointer dereference in trace_uprobe_create()
Just like the case of commit 8b05a3a750 ("tracing/kprobes: Fix NULL
pointer dereference in trace_kprobe_create()"), writing an incorrectly
formatted string to uprobe_events can trigger NULL pointer dereference.

Reporeducer:

  # echo r > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/uprobe_events

dmesg:

  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000

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.
