Pull tracing fixes from Steven Rostedt:
- Fix setting affinity of hwlat threads in containers
Using sched_set_affinity() has unwanted side effects when being
called within a container. Use set_cpus_allowed_ptr() instead
- Fix per cpu thread management of the hwlat tracer:
- Do not start per_cpu threads if one is already running for the CPU
- When starting per_cpu threads, do not clear the kthread variable
as it may already be set to running per cpu threads
- Fix return value for test_gen_kprobe_cmd()
On error the return value was overwritten by being set to the result
of the call from kprobe_event_delete(), which would likely succeed,
and thus have the function return success
- Fix splice() reads from the trace file that was broken by commit
36e2c7421f ("fs: don't allow splice read/write without explicit
ops")
- Remove obsolete and confusing comment in ring_buffer.c
The original design of the ring buffer used struct page flags for
tricks to optimize, which was shortly removed due to them being
tricks. But a comment for those tricks remained
- Set local functions and variables to static
