Merge tag 'trace-fixes-v3.13-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace
Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt: "This includes two fixes. 1) is a bug fix that happens when root does the following: echo function_graph > current_tracer modprobe foo echo nop > current_tracer This causes the ftrace internal accounting to get screwed up and crashes ftrace, preventing the user from using the function tracer after that. 2) if a TRACE_EVENT has a string field, and NULL is given for it. The internal trace event code does a strlen() and strcpy() on the source of field. If it is NULL it causes the system to oops. This bug has been there since 2.6.31, but no TRACE_EVENT ever passed in a NULL to the string field, until now" * tag 'trace-fixes-v3.13-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace: ftrace: Fix function graph with loading of modules tracing: Allow events to have NULL strings
