Pull fprobe fix from Masami Hiramatsu:

 - allocate entry_data_size buffer for each rethook instance.

   This fixes a buffer overrun bug (which leads a kernel crash)
   when fprobe user uses its entry_data in the entry_handler.

Fix to allocate fprobe::entry_data_size buffer with rethook instances.
If fprobe doesn't allocate entry_data_size buffer for each rethook instance,
fprobe entry handler can cause a buffer overrun when storing entry data in
entry handler.

The data on the subbuffer is measured by a write variable that also
contains status flags. The counter is just 20 bits in length. If the
subbuffer is bigger than then counter, it will fail.

Make sure that the subbuffer can not be set to greater than the counter
that keeps track of the data on the subbuffer.

Fix to search a field from the structure which has anonymous union
correctly.
Since the reference `type` pointer was updated in the loop, the search
loop suddenly aborted where it hits an anonymous union. Thus it can not
find the field after the anonymous union. This avoids updating the
cursor `type` pointer in the loop.

Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:

 - Fix the #ifndef that didn't have the 'CONFIG_' prefix on
   HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS

   The fix to have dynamic trampolines work with x86 broke arm64 as the
   config used in the #ifdef was HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS and not
   CONFIG_HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS which removed the fix that the
   previous fix was to fix.

 - Fix tracing_on state

   The code to test if "tracing_on" is set incorrectly used
   ring_buffer_record_is_on() which returns false if the ring buffer
   isn't able to be written to.

   But the ring buffer disable has several bits that disable it. One is
   internal disabling which is used for resizing and other modifications
   of the ring buffer. But the "tracing_on" user space visible flag
   should only report if tracing is actually on and not internally
   disabled, as this can cause confusion as writing "1" when it is
   disabled will not enable it.

   Instead use ring_buffer_record_is_set_on() which shows the user space
   visible settings.

 - Fix a false positive kmemleak on saved cmdlines

   Now that the saved_cmdlines structure is allocated via alloc_page()
   and not via kmalloc() it has become invisible to kmemleak. The
   allocation done to one of its pointers was flagged as a dangling
   allocation leak. Make kmemleak aware of this allocation and free.

 - Fix synthetic event dynamic strings

   An update that cleaned up the synthetic event code removed the return
   value of trace_string(), and had it return zero instead of the
   length, causing dynamic strings in the synthetic event to always have
   zero size.

 - Clean up documentation and header files for seq_buf

The allocation of the struct saved_cmdlines_buffer structure changed from:

        s = kmalloc(sizeof(*s), GFP_KERNEL);
	s-&gt;saved_cmdlines = kmalloc_array(TASK_COMM_LEN, val, GFP_KERNEL);

to:

	orig_size = sizeof(*s) + val * TASK_COMM_LEN;
	order = get_order(orig_size);
	size = 1 &lt;&lt; (order + PAGE_SHIFT);
	page = alloc_pages(GFP_KERNEL, order);
	if (!page)
		return NULL;

	s = page_address(page);
	memset(s, 0, sizeof(*s));

	s-&gt;saved_cmdlines = kmalloc_array(TASK_COMM_LEN, val, GFP_KERNEL);

Where that s-&gt;saved_cmdlines allocation looks to be a dangling allocation
to kmemleak. That's because kmemleak only keeps track of kmalloc()
allocations. For allocations that use page_alloc() directly, the kmemleak
needs to be explicitly informed about it.

Add kmemleak_alloc() and kmemleak_free() around the page allocation so
that it doesn't give the following false positive:

<title>tracing: Use ring_buffer_record_is_set_on() in tracer_tracing_is_on()</title>

tracer_tracing_is_on() checks whether record_disabled is not zero. This
checks both the record_disabled counter and the RB_BUFFER_OFF flag.
Reading the source it looks like this function should only check for
the RB_BUFFER_OFF flag. Therefore use ring_buffer_record_is_set_on().
This fixes spurious fails in the 'test for function traceon/off triggers'
test from the ftrace testsuite when the system is under load.

Commit a8b9cf62ade1 ("ftrace: Fix DIRECT_CALLS to use SAVE_REGS by
default") attempted to fix an issue with direct trampolines on x86, see
its description for details. However, it wrongly referenced the
HAVE_DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS config option and the problem is still
present.

Add the missing "CONFIG_" prefix for the logic to work as intended.
